I'd recommend IDNet tbh.
BoomAM said:So, my setup, which has the master socket, then a splitter, which has 2 cables, one goes to a filter with sky/phone in it, the others an extension to a bedroom, which has 2 connectors, ones a filter w/phone, the other the 2nd extension, which goes to my room, where theres filter with phone & router plugged into it.
So i wont need the main filter, just some micro filters?
Would you recommend getting those XF-1e filters (i think thats what they are called), or should i just stick with what i have?
Thats a description of my current setup.tolien said:What?![]()
I get the impression that with a master socket filter, that i wouldnt be able to use the extensions for phones, just for ADSL. So i'd have to not use the master socket thing, and use normal filters.If you're going to use a filtered master socket, the idea is you'd do away with all those filters and run extensions for the phone and ADSL side.
Well theres not really an option for me to chance the wiring unfortunatelly.If what you've got are crappy then yes. I'd suggest that all that extension wiring's more likely to be a problem though.

So basically, theres no point in me having a master socket filter?tolien said:There's nothing stopping you running extensions, but if you connect the extension to the voice side, you can't connect an ADSL modem to it (well you can, but it won't sync up)
There's nothing stopping you connecting an extension to the ADSL side, then filtering it later. It's just mostly pointless (unless the extension cable is of decent quality).

Cheers jbloggs. Think having read the thread properly now and also having looked at their site they seem to be the best option. IDNet also look good but only 30Gb instead of Zen's 50Gb. I could buy 20Gb extra to match the 50Gb Zen offer, but it is £1 a gig which means an extra £20 making the £24.99 for IDNet £44.99 after matching the bandwidth.jbloggs said:MarcLister:
I don't think you will do any better than going with Zen.![]()
