New BT Iplate questions.

The OP should look at fitting a master socket faceplate filter of the
type that has a through connection from the back of the faceplate,
allowing the unfiltered ADSL signal to be connected pernamently e.g.
ADLnation XTE2005. Then connect the current twisted-pair phone cable to
the bedroom computer to the straight through connection and all the rest
of the home wiring to the filtered connection. This will remove the
ADSL signal from all the house wiring at the master socket, except on
the cable to the computer. This cable should only connect the A and B
wires to a single, twisted pair, with *no* other wires connected. The
socket in the bedroom should then be replaced with an RJ11 type so it
won't accept a dumb telephone, or with a filtered socket (e.g. XTF85),
if a local phone/fax modem is needed.
Interesting John
Hadn't come across this product. As you say it makes extension of the
ADSL part on a separate twisted pair cable (mayb even CAT V with it's
heavier construction than regular phone cable) easy.
Clever having the AB leg at the rear - I guess this is a filtered A/B
leg rather than a direct connection to the BT A/B line.
Pity they can't spell in the website though:-
