Also known as a connector bend no.4.

Of course you shouldn't be taking the cover off it, but I'm sure not so dim as to not tuck it all back in neatly in place before you screw the lid back on wink

I'm actually thinking, on seeing that picture, that it's teed in somewhere else.
The fault-finding system you (Zarjaz) mentioned in an older post has already flagged up that our line is not performing as well as expected and Plusnet are aware.

Well that's good, how soon will they raise a fault ? Maybe you can just sit tight till the engineer comes, show him the issue, as in the bridge tapped socket, and let him find it for you.

Hmmm. Might have peak inside. I don't understand why it's on the other side to the master.

Plusnet are wanting to wait for the 10 day myth period to end. I'm not going to bother arguing with them.

Go on, it's only two screws, you know you want to wink

Where's your neighbours master socket, same location or nearer where the drop wire enters?

The master socket for next door is in the hallway, as was mine until it was moved to the study.

So is there still a socket of some description, or maybe a blanking plate at that location. That might be worth a peek too.

In the hallway, there is this:

So, there's some sort of blank plate, and a socket (which does not work when the master is disconnected).

And as to the 2/3 screws thing, if you look at the image the third screw is missing wink

Here's the inside of the bedroom socket.

Just one large cable with two wires connected to the front plate.

Oh my God, why didn't you mention this before ? That'll be why yer t'internet is slow !! grin

So if the pictured socket stops working when the faceplate is pulled, it looks unlikely that it's teed in there.
I wonder whats behind the blanking plate ? Have a peek, be careful though, as it might have power cables in it.
