New contract - 'old style' 1980 fixed master socke...

Hi
LJ2/ socket!!
I couldn't believe my eyes, when I came home from work one day!
An ancient socket fixed behind a chest of drawers [when I requested to put on the wall above it]
But this guy from BT Openreach convinced my girlfriend that it's better to have it behind heavy piece of furniture...
just in case someone wants to look at it - me! [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:LJ_Front.jpg]
So if I want I-Plate I will have to pay again £120.
Thank you mister openreach!
Another reason I came here today;
Two years on the new contract and my average download speed only twice exceeded 1Mbps. [i know because I monitor the network]
The last time it was in November and I enjoyed +4Mbps for couple of days [so this is the true capacity of my line]
But since I remember my average download speed was solid 100-110KB/s and when I look at monitor graph it's a straight line, never up and down.
Does it mean that my line is capped?
I didn't complain to BT before - mainly because I have only bad experiences with their customer service and it cost me dearly when I have to call them so - I learn to live with that...
But now my girlfriend use it more and more and she needs fast internet for her study.
So here I am:

Thank you for your reply, imjolly.
Yes, this is the master socket and the only one I have access to.
There is another guy [we live in shared house] he has bt vision; he says he never go below 4Mbps
I would use your advice - but I'm not sure it is legal to fiddle with BT property.
Apparently bellwire is not the cause of my trouble since I know that my line can carry +4Mbps easily.
I want BT representative to answer few questions:
1. How was it possible in 2009 I have new line fitted with 1980 socket?
Who is responsible and how it will be fixed?
2.  Is my line capped?
3. Is my line faulty? When can you check and repair it?
My recent statistics: 
ps. I fixed formatting issue in my first message.
I was a complete mess, no wonder only one reply.

  • New Infinity 2 Order & Cancelled Over Master Sock...

    Hi,
    Just trying to get some advice here about master socket and BT unwillingness to new customer.
    I placed online order 2 weeks ago for infinity 2 & land line, My landline has been inactive for about a year now. So think that my new landline was inactive for a year and being that the master socket was placed in a really bad place before I moved in I could get it moved being a new customer and the free connection fee.
    Engineer came out on jan 2 and told me he would need the master socket moved which he will arrange with BT, today I recieved a text saying I missed the engineer yesterday and another appointment has been made for 16th.
    I phoned them up told them the situation they just repied saying open reach dont mvoe master sockets and I would have to hire a electircian to move this for me....
    My point is why cant BT move the socket free of charge for a new customer ?? I canceled my order over the phone today I kinda regret doing it because well I had more faith in BT than other companies .

    I would say that you have been given incorrect advice with regards the moving the master socket.  The only company / people allowed to touch the back of the master socket is OR.  There is of course one caveat to this and thats if you have an external NTE, nice pic in this thread , I belive this is effectively the master socket and all internal cabling is your responsibility.
    Has anybody got any expirence of external NTE's and Infinity?
    If you want to try and reorder Inifinity I suggest you contact the mods on here first.  Can't really comment with regards to the move being FOC but as long as it isn't a big job most OR engineers will do it.  If it needs a new drop cable then humm?
    I don't know why you have said that the OP has been given bad advice, when I have already said that Openreach are the only ones who can move it, and should do when Infinity is installed. I've had it done when my Infinity was installed and I have done many installs where the master socket is moved when installing Infinity.

  • Safari Ver 5.1.10 Fix For The "Old Style" Google Problem...

    @ The mods/ Admins
    I'm not sure if this is the correct place to post this but I cannot seem to find the thread where people were discussing the recent problem Google introduced by forcing some versions of Safari to revert back to their old style Google layout and format...
    I was told by a moderator (Zack T.) that I could post my "Fix/ Solution" to this problem here on the site but I can't find the original thread for this. So I am posting the "Fix" here as I'm still getting inundated with emails from people here and from Googles "help" forums asking me for this solution...
    Could you please if possible leave this thread available for those people running Safari Ver 5.1.10 so that they can try for themselves this "Fix" without having to contact me personally over it, or can you (if needed) move this post to the appropriate thread...
    Thank you...
    The following is a "Fix/ Solution" that I have created that solves the problem for users of Safari Ver 5.1.10  that Google introduced recently where they now block older version of Safari from using the "Modern Style" layout and features of Google which they had been used to...
    You can still use the "Modern Style" Google with Safari 5.1.10 via the "Develop/ User Agent/ Other" menu to switch to a "User Agent" that allows you to use the "Modern Google" however, there is no way to make this as the permanent "Default User Agent" in Safari 5.1.10 and it has to be done for each new tab you open and every time you startup Safari... which is not exactly good or helpful...
    That's where this "Fix" solves that for you. This fix will make sure Safari 5.1.10 starts up and uses a custom "User Agent" that allows you to continue to use the "Modern Style" Google and not have to constantly change the "User Agent" via the "Develop" menu...
    It also has the benefit over other methods that are about of using FireFox "User Agents" in that this fix creates a Mac specific "User agent" that means you get the correct pages from whatever it is you are accessing on the internet (The FireFox one causes some changes to graphics and page layout when used on a Mac)...
    As long as you are certain you are using Safari Version 5.1.10 on a Mac running OSX 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard) and they are all fully updated as far as they can be then this fix should work for you (it already has for several thousand other Safari 5.1. 10 users whom have tried it)...
    INSTRUCTIONS.... Safari Version 5.1.10 Fix To Restore The "Modern Style" Google...
    IMPORTANT !!! --- MAKE SURE SAFARI ISN"T RUNNING ---
    Download the following DMG which contains the "Fix" for Safari Ver 5.1.10...
    http://www.mediafire.com/download/7wsl4n5siu7cphw/Safari_Ver_5.1.10_Google_Fix.d mg
    When you open the DMG file you will see a window that looks like this...
    IMPORTANT --- MAKE SURE SAFARI ISN"T RUNNING ---
    STEP 1: Double click on the folder called "A" to open it...
    STEP 2: From the new window that opens from folder "A"  find the file called "Safari" and drag
    it to your Desktop screen to make a copy of it (this is both for safekeeping and in case the "fix"
    doesn't work for you so that you can still restore the original file)...
    STEP 3: Drag the file from the downloaded DMG window called "Safari" onto the folder in the
    same window called "A"...
    Now start Safari as you would normally and if the fix has worked you should once again be seeing the
    "Modern" look Google once again. You should copy/ move the original "Safari" file you copied to your
    Desktop screen to a safe place for storage (Downloads or Documents for example) in case you ever
    need or want to restore the original file to Safari at some pint in the future...
    IMPORTANT:- If you're still seeing the old version of Google in Safari after trying this fix then
    unfortunately it hasn't worked for you and you MUST replace/ put back the
    original "Safari" file you copied to your Desktop screen...
    This is simple to do and is achieved by simply dragging the original "Safari"
    file you copied to your Desktop screen onto the "A" folder in the "Safari Fix"
    window...
    Happy Googling - MadFranko008 (2014)

    I followed instructions from Carolyn Smith in another thread (see below) - but Safari did not start anyway. After that I discovered that Safari started when starting from /Program/-folder but not from Docks on the desktop.
    So - throw away the old icon on the desktop and make a new one.

  • Old style editor in new debugger?

    I recently started working with an older system (older than I'm used to anyway) and I noticed that in the debugger the first two desktop tabs show the code in the old style (grey background and all black text) yet desktop 3 is in full color, as it should be.  This system is ECC 6.0 7.01 level 6.  Is there a setting I'm missing or does this release just not show the first two desktop tabs in color?  I found a similar thread but I couldn't figure out the conclusion or if it truly matched my issue.  I am using the latest version of the GUI front end.
    New Debugger not running New abap editor

    Thank you for all your answers.  Apparently there is no way to look at Display List in the New Debugger.  I find really annoying to have to switch back to the old debugger just to look at the Display List, specially if you have been tracking different fields.  When you go back to the new debugger, you have to enter them all over again.  I wonder what is reason why SAP did not include this help tool in the new debugger. 
    Thanks again

  • How can I apply a new style with a snippet and make DW remove artifacts of the old style?

    Hello,
    I am using Dreamweaver CS5 on Windows XP SP3. My problem seems simple but the resolution remains elusive.
    Let's say I am editing pasted-in text from MS Word that DW has auto-formatted. I highlight some text and use a snippet to enclose the text in h2.
    Instead of deleting the former style and replacing it with h2, DW applies the h2, but copies the old style, enclosing nothing, and bumps it to the next line. If the old style included a paragraph tag, that throws in extra white space. For nothing at all.
    Now, this seems like a minor thing, but it's not so minor when you are trying to quickly prepare a large document with various header styles. Having to make dozens of edits that I think should be completely unnecessary becomes a real burden.
    Is there a way to enclose a bit of text in a new style with a snippet without having the old style stick around?
    Thanks for any and all replies!
    Michael Salmons

    Maybe auto-format is not the correct terminology, but DW does interpret MS Word formatting in some way,and in a way I cannot control (well, I can to a limited degree). The term that popped into my head describing this process was automatic formatting.
    I don't really want to paste in as text, then I have to touch everything. I mean, I do frequently end up touching everything in a document anyway, but if any decisions can be "automated," I like to at least give it a try.
    DW makes mostly good guesses* about Word formatting (*or whatever mechanism translates word formatting to html in DW). Even if it is just a little wrong, it saves me a lot of time. <p><strong> can be converted to <h2> faster than text that only has a CRLF to distinguish it from surrounding text.
    I'm not mixing any styles. I control the style absolutely. I would just like to know how to use snippets in a way that truly replaces the Word-suggested tags rather than preserving them for no good reason. Perhaps there is no way to do that, or I so fundamentally misunderstand snippets I am fooling myself.

  • Move old installations facts from old contract to new contract in transfer

    Hi all,
    Is there anyway to automate in moving old installations facts from old contract to new contract, during transfer process in CRM / UCES ?
    regards,
    Xiang Li
    Edited by: xiangli heah on Jul 13, 2011 10:35 AM

    Hi Vikrant Guptarya,
    1.     For CRM IC Web, use "Contract Management" work center  > use "Move" transaction to perform Move Out and Move In
    Upon saving, the Move Out contract will be completed for the previous premise, and Move In contract will be created for the new premise. I want to transfer all previous premise's installation facts to new premise at this point of time .
    2.     For UCES, use "Transfer" radio button >perform Move Out and Move In.
    Same, upon saving, the Move Out contract will be completed for the previous premise, and Move In contract will be created for the new premise. I want to transfer all previous premise's installation facts to new premise at this point of time .
    Yes i would like implement this in both system.
    Appreciate if you could enlighten how can I achieve this.
    Thanks.

  • New contract, reverted back to old number?

    Hi I received my new phone that was taken out in a new contract last Thursday. I wanted a new number to stop all the unwanted calls from my old number.
    Therefore text everyone my new number... that came with the phone on a new sim card.
    Today I have not been receiving any of my texts and sending texts keeps failing... I thought it was my signal, until I phoned a friend and she said it came up as my old number..
    Can anyone advise me why a new phone and contract has reverted back to my old contact number?
    Thanks

    It looks like they have done this as an upgrade, I would advise you to ring EE and ask them to change your number to a new one, not sure that you can use the number that came with that phone, though.

  • My new iPad 2 and old style keyboard. Help!

    I just got a new iPad 2 and my dad gave me this apple wireless keyboard (old style with white keys and clear case) for use with it. Unfortunately every time I try to pair it with my iPad it will give me an error message saying the pairing is unsuccessful. My iPad will find the keyboard and the name I gave it but it won't connect. I've tried typing random pin numbers to pair it but nothing will work. Please help!

    Apple says that this keyboard is not supported.
    The Bluetooth drivers are probably not there.
    You are welcome to play around with it, but it may be a waste of time.

  • Newer iPhone USB cables tear at the ends, unlike old style iPhone USB cable

    Has anyone been seeing their iPhone USB cables tear at the ends after a year? This has been happening with the newer USB cable style, but not the older ones.
    http://i.imgur.com/KjGUx.jpg (USB ends)
    http://i.imgur.com/ueJ9m.jpg (30-pin connector ends)
    For the USB ends, the older style had a plastic cylindrical section covering the joint where the cable and USB head met. The same goes for the 30-pin connector end.

    Oh yeah. Our household has torn a total of three already in precisely that way. In fact, the one I'm using as we speak to connect my iPhone 3G to my computer is actually shredded from both ends (though the USB end is worse; the other two were also only torn at the USB ends).
    Sure one might attribute that to "user abuse" -- I don't know that any of us have been particularly
    gentle with our respective iPod and iPhone cables -- but personally I've found that the new cables (as opposed to the old cable that came with my first iPod) break in exactly this way unusually easy, without any extra unkind handling. Surely such an essential part should be able to last ordinary use beyond the first year?

  • Price for new phoneline from Post and Master Socke...

    Hi there,
    Having looked at my parents phoneline wiring yesterday i have realised that it has gradually become incredibly unfit for purpose.
    Currently it joins the house on the roof before flowing through 3x junction boxes before termintating at the master socket which is currently fitted in the office upstairs.
    This causes two problems. The first being that the office is in the corner of the house and the wifi will not make it to the other side of the building. Secondly the crazy run that the phone line takes to the master socket, through different cables is causing problems on the broadand line dropping.
    I would like to have BT come and bring a new line into the house terminating with a master socket by the front door. This would be an incredibly simple cable run rather than what they currently have. Literally straight down 3 metres from where the current line starts to spaghetti around the house and in. It would also allow the router to be in the centre of the house causing no issues with wifi.
    Can someone please advise me of the cost of this. Along with what my dad needs to ask for, so that they can get this ordered? I think its something like "new external wiring from post and master socket"
    Thanks very much

    It will be Openreach that do the work on behalf of BT. It normally costs about £130.
    You will have to contact your own service provider, for example, if you pay BT for your calls and line rental, then they are your service provider.
    If you want to contact BT, you can use Live Chat  or telephone 0800 800 150

  • Centaur MT: Italics Formatting Issue & Proportional Old Style Numbers

    I recently purchased the font Centaur MT Std and am using a Windows computer. I am having a problem in Microsoft Word where everytime I use italics, it bumps the next line down so that it looks like it is double spaced instead of single spaced. It is really messing up my formatting. Also, I can't seem to figure out how to make the numbers proportional old style within a style guide. I found where to change the option but it doesn't actually change anything on the screen. Any help with either of these questions would be much appreciated. Thank you.

    @ adobe-admin (J.C.?):
    Thanks for fixing the "backslash" error. Accuracy is important, and doubly so when presented as an F.A.Q.
    The sad thing is how prevalent the usage of "backslash" is when a plain old slash is meant (generally, the "forward" attribute is assumed and unneeded), and by people who should know better. It's a direct result of people knowing just barely enough about the Windows file path naming protocols, and then applying the only terminology they're familiar with incorrectly to URLs.
    I went about 10 rounds—TWICE!—with a labyrinthian succession of people at the Discovery & History cable TV networks because they were saying "backslash" in voice overs whenever their commercials promoted their websites. It took some doing, but I finally got in touch with somebody who was savvy enough to recognize that it was a rookie mistake made by a clueless marketing copywriter. The voice over person just read the copy they were given, oblivious to the difference. It amazes me that it wasn't caught by somebody early in the recording/production process and rectified.
    They then had it correct for about a year, until new commercials started popping up with the same error. Unfortunately, the person I had talked to previously no longer worked for the History channel and I had to go through the process of finding someone who understood all over again.
    Yeah, you can call me a nitpicker with nothing better to do.
    But I've earned that dang badge, and I wear it proudly!

  • Time machine osx 10.6.8 problem slow backupd CFPropertyListCreateFromXMLData(): Old-style plist parser: missing semicolon in dictionary. mdworker32 kCGErrorFailure: Set a breakpoint @ CGErrorBreakpoint() to catch errors as they are logged.

    Hello Guys I have a problem that I can not get to the bottom.
    Time Machine has suddenly stopped working it really slow to make up. Copy a few kb at a time and long hours it takes to close the back. (up to a few tens of megs, 10, 20 Mb).
    I made ​​the following list of tests that will follow along with the log file.
    First of all I made ​​a copy as root with Carbon Copy Cloner disk of the iMac. (So that they can go back in case of disaster)
    Following the guides Pondini (pondini.org) I did the following steps:
    1) Changed the internfaccia FW800 to USB hard drive (does not change anything, still slow)
    2) Changed to another external HD for time machine with FW800 and USB (nothing changes still slow)
    3) Recreated the full backup with Time Machine on either drive (still slow)
    4) Reinstalled the 10.6.8 Combo Pack (still slow)
    5) Re spootlight indexed with the disk (still slow)
    6) At this point, in desperation I reinstalled on the internal drive of my iMac 10.6.8 creating a new user, User Migration Assistant from my hd clone with Carbon Copy Cloner. Recreated the full backup with Time Machine.
    The first full backup is fast, but slow incremental backups are back (as to 'start a few kb at a time).
    I compared the log files with those of my other machine with same configuration and I found these errors:
    backupdir [19376]: CFPropertyListCreateFromXMLData (): Old-style plist parser: missing semicolon in dictionary.
    mdworker32 [20950]: kCGErrorFailure: Set a breakpoint @ CGErrorBreakpoint () to catch errors logged as They Are.
    You know help me? I saw that this error is from 10.5 to 10.7, but no one has found a real solution to the issue.
    I never installed antivirus software and tried with different external drives COPN capacity equal to or greater than the external drive. Only at the end I tried to divide the external drive to back up into two parts by a 1.5 TB and 500 GB but with the same mistakes that I have described.
    thanks

    Ciao  Ragazzi ho un problema a cui non riesco a venire a capo.
    improvvisamente time machine ha smesso di funzionare va veramente lento a fare backup. Copia pochi kb alla volta e impiega tanto tempo ore per chiudere il backup. (backup di poche decine di mega, 10, 20 Mb).
    Ho effettuato le seguenti prove che vi elenco di seguito insieme al file log.
    Prima di tutto ho fatto una copia  come utente root con Carbon Copy cloner del disco del imac.(in maniera tale di poter tornare indietro in caso di disastro)
    Seguendo le guide di Pondini (pondini.org) ho effettuato i seguenti passaggi:
    1) Cambiato internfaccia del disco rigido da FW800 a USB (non cambia nulla, sempre lento)
    2) Cambiato hd esterno con un altro per time machine con FW800 e USB (non cambia nulla sempre lento)
    3) Ricreato il full Backup con time machine su entrambe i dischi (sempre lento)
    4) Reinstallato il Combo pack 10.6.8 (sempre lento)
    5) Re indicizzato con spootlight il disco (sempre lento)
    6) A questo punto preso dalla disperazione ho reinstallato sul disco interno del mio imac il 10.6.8 creando un nuovo utente, Assistente migrazione utente dal mio hd clonato con Carbon copy cloner. Ricreato il backup completo con time machine.
    Il primo full backup è veloce, ma i backup incrementali sono tornati lentissimi (come all' inizio pochi kb alla volta).
    Ho confrontato il file log con quelli di un mio altro mac con la stessa configurazione ed ho trovato questi errori:
    backupd[19376]: CFPropertyListCreateFromXMLData(): Old-style plist parser: missing semicolon in dictionary.
    mdworker32[20950]: kCGErrorFailure: Set a breakpoint @ CGErrorBreakpoint() to catch errors as they are logged.
    Sapete darmi aiuto? Ho visto che questo errore è presente dal 10.5 al 10.7 ma nessuno ha trovato una vera soluzione alla questione.
    Non ho mai installato software antivirus ed ho provato con diversi dischi esterni copn capacità uguale o superiore al disco esterno. Solo alla fine ho provato a dividere il disco esterno del backup in due parti una da 1,5TB e una da 500 Gb ma con i medesimi errori che vi ho descritto.
    grazie

    Thanks for the quick response.
    I followed the steps you listed and also remove the files that were creating problems spootlight, including the audio plugin and the panel preferences file.
    Then I stopped by the timemachine reindexed spootlight 'option in the preferences panel spootight privacy. After I restarted my iMac and formatted the external drive again, Time Machine and restarting a full backup. This morning after a quick full backup and disk indexing completed incremental backups are always slow. Proceeds with a few kb at a time. I resend you the log files and screen capture. My iMac is constantly backed up.
    Thank you for your time.
