It's the test socket you need to use, not the master, the test socket is the one behind the master faceplate.

Re: New user speed question
That is a lot better. Your speed has doubled but there is more there yet. Get you faceplate and RJ11 and see how your stats are with them. You have the potential for 16 Mb, provided your external line has no faults.

Re: New user speed question
Call Sky, tell them you have made improvements to your home wiring and would like your line reconfigured for its best speed. You should see about 3-4 Mbs on your download and maybe a bit more on your upload.
