No, don't worry about it. This is just overspill from something in Free Chat. The OP was using Matt's response as an authority on the matter.

John.

What you said is basically what i have been to hit home in freechat . I only asked a plusnet rep , because i thought it would be good to get some insight from an isp. The trouble is some people will not except anything no matter who says it and asking if they consulted their legal team is just plain ridicules .

Hi Dusty,

Matt's offered you a personal opinion.

Our legal team deals with legal issues surrounding the provision of broadband and related services. They are not here to advise on whether or not Christmas Tree provision is violating the law. I'm not sure whather or not you expected Matt to ask them

My personal opinion would be very similar to Matt's. I can't see how home electrical equipment (at low cost) could be taken to court over a small intereference issue. But an interesting argument nonetheless!

NB: I am not legally trained and have no pretences of being so!
NBB: The above was a disclaimer .

All i wanted was an opinion from someone in the business. I just wanted to get some prospective from people in the know.

Thanks Dusty.

Here you go dusty, this may answer some of your(or who ever needs to know) questions.

Thanks for that

Interested to read your post re IEC. Some years ago I was actively involved with one of the Telecommunications Committees TL12/C. Wonder if you are familiar with it?

Afraid not, telecoms is something i do not really get involved with. Its normally us doing something that effect telecoms

Thanks StAnLeH,

It was just a thought as you never know a posters potted history.
