I have just had a second phone line fitted by BT, but they cut loads of corners. They didn't even technically fit a second line, they just plugged in a new master socket into my current cable. The original plan was to have have 2 DSL connections, but thanks to BT's stupid engineers, I can't. I can only get a DSL signal on one line at a time. Plus, now my current DSL signal on my line is weakened and I am getting a lousy 800kbit connection. So I say, DEATH TO BT! [/anger]
dude, i hate to say it but why the hell did you go with BT anyway? they know piss all about internet connections and my goldfish has more intelligence than most of the engineers they send out, anyway if you payed for a second line then i'd demand a independant second line, not just a half assed attempt at one

Recommend me a better phone service then :P Wow, there's NTL, Telewest? The only connections that work with those lines are the companies own services, which frankly, suck. Looks like I will have to move to sweden and get a fiber carrier line then...

That's what I have, apart from I specifically asked them to change my upload speed to 512k, because 256 took forever to transmit anything, cost me an extra £5 a month. :woot:

You can't get Telewest in my area. You can get a couple of miles away though, but not here, since they are too lazy to dig up the roads and cable it.
