Also when I get my bt phone line swapped back over, I wait 2days max then apply for adsl right? How long does adsl take to come after that? And do I need a second line to have adsl not interfere with my phone line to recieve calls?
Also all I need is a router right to get internet on my pc from adsl? (so my mate says who has plusnet).
I know theres alot of noobie q's, just wanna make sure my change is gonna be secure

You will have to pay the activation fee, because ntl is cable, and plusnet is adsl.
You will not need a second phone line, but you will need filters so to connect to your phone sockets.
Also, you will need an adsl modem, some providers supply these, but they are usually usb versions, not ethernet. If you want to share the connection you can either connect your existing cable router to a standalone ethernet adsl modem, or purchase a combined adsl modem and router. It is advisable that you check first that any equipment you buy is compatible with your adsl provider.
