Phone socket >> modem/router. Period.
I have a wireless signal and I can go online
That's assuming the OP isn't picking up someone else's WiFi signal.

My broadband basic info/help site - www.robertos.me.uk | Domains,website and mail hosting - Tsohost.
Connection - Plusnet UnLim Fibre (FTTC). Sync ~ 59.4/14.4Mbps @ 600m. - BQM

I've checked back and poster does not say they have plugged into the phone socket, I agree its likely as they have a wireless signal, but that could be a false positive, e.g. joined a neighbours open network without realising it.

I'd have expected the complaint to be more than that speeds are slow if its just ADSL2+ connectivity they have but were expecting fibre.

Presume it is me you are agreeing with.
In reply to a post by MrSaffron:
odd they've not mentioned connecting anything to the ADSL port on the ADSL port on the back of the router.
In reply to a post by nettie666:
after he'd vanished, I set about connecting leads and got a wireless signal
What other port would he connect to if he is just getting a wireless connection?

Yes - I added that in while you were typing your reply, so you wouldn't have seen it in my post smile.
