Can anyone post a diagram of a socket and what cables need to be where, cause i think we have cables that dont need to be connected on our sockets.

All your sockets just need 2 (blue/white) and 5 (white/blue) connected.

You'll get better results if you don't connect the ring wire on each jack, but make sure the phones ring OK if you don't connect it.

3 is the ringwire.
Leave it disconnected but make sure your phones ring without it..most new phoones will.

I think you can take 3 (which is the dreaded 'ring wire') out to improve your signal because the microfilter does the ring wire job.

Yes, as long as the phones are connected with a good quality filter (some really cheap ones don't have a ring capacitor), then you can disconnect ALL the ring wires on terminal 3.
