Attenuation (Insertion) pass value goes up from 55d to 60db, *roughly*
equivalent (on cu cable) of an extra 0.5km, to 6km.

BT have now officially decided that 60dB is okay, well that was what I was
told when on a 'training' course today with them

Good news!

Did BT tell you whether they were going to extend it further? (Or
anything about their 'cell-wireless' trials - in Wales if I remember
correctly.)

Helps to trim and quote only from an original post if poss.
Now, was the "this" about the extended trial using wire,
or a query the last part of the thread, on wireless ?

Well you should be surprised, your next door neighbour very easily can be on
a different exchange and/or a completely different wiring loop. You might
find your cable shoots off in the opposite direction to where your exchange
is before it heads on 'home', whilst your neighbour's might take a more
convential route.

Its worth getting the phone numbers of a few nearby friends and plugging them
in. You might find that if you have a friend who might not want the ADSL
connection but is willing for you to ADSL enable them and let you throw some
CAT5 cable around to go to your house.

Thanks again, Alex. But I was one of the first occupants of my little
hamlet and I saw all the subsequent BT cables tied into the same
junction.
