Could someone help me clear up a liitle confusion, am I right in thinking that the new face plate from ADSLNation.com only replaces the bottom half of an NTE5 Socket, and does not contain any of the capacitors/lightning protection/overvoltage protection that is found in a standard BT NTE5 Socket, I am also a little confused with one of the replies that said it was quite legal to wire from the BT Block Terminal, where the undergound wires/overhead wires terminate where they enter your premises, I was led to believe that it was illegal to interfere with BT owned equipment??

Correct it is only the faceplate, all the capacitors etc are in the main BT socket afaik

At the moment i have a bt adsl faceplate v.1.0, if i plug into the master socket i don't get a speed increase at all. If i purchased a adsl nation XTE_2005 would i see any increase in speed?, even if it gave me a more stable snr i would be happy. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

its hard to say a lot of people have been seeing a speed increase, i myself saw none but my snr did increase by about 1.5 and it also looks tidier then before with the filter hanging down

Not being pedantic (honest!) but did you mean your noise margin went up not your SNR? Or are you using a non Sky router which reports SNR?

If you test the router in the test socket in the back of the master and your stats do not improve then you are unlikely to see any benefit fitting an XTE-2005.
