I think im in a similar position and would like some advice.

I am currently with VM for landline/tv/BB and have 1 master socket in the living room and 1 working extension socket in the main bedroom. However, we had an additional 2 extension sockets fitted by them in the other 2 bedrooms back in the days of dial-up, but they had to be disconnected from the box outside of the house, after some problem a few years back

In the next couple of weeks, i will be moving to an ADSL provider. I currently have an inactive BT socket in the living room, which will be getting re-activated

Question is:
Will i be able to get the engineer to hook up the disconnected VM extension socket up to the BT connection, so i can use it as a BT extension socket in the other bedroom...and thus have the router closer to the desktop PC's.
