Newly installed Landline

    Hi there,

    I recently got installed phone and broadband. The thing is, I can connect my router and phone to only the phone and socket in the hall where the connection comes in from outside. No connection at any other of the 7 other sockets in the house. I was up in attic putting away Xmas bits and came across 7 white phone cables all banded together, is there any connector I could get to connect the one coming from the hall to the rest so I can have the phone and router separated.

    Thanks in advance.

    Al

    You could get a dsl filter socket and connect the phones to the phone part and broadband to the broadband.

    You would need a cable going from the attic to the main socket to get this to work. Then connect 4 lines off using a junction box in the attic.

    Its recommended you only have a maximum of 4 phones connected on the one line. There may not be enough power to power up the other phones.

    Its easier to use a dsl filter socket rather then adapter.
