My broadband modem has turned up. Now for the bad news:

According to Onetel, BT still haven't switched my line over. They are doing
this tomorrow. Does anyone know of a way to get BT to do it now?

No. BT will activate the line according to their schedule.

There is an easy way to make the wait lots shorter.
Get very, very drunk.

BUT, remember to put micro-filters on ALL phones etc.
I thought it would at least work a bit without, only to find that I had
probably missed at least one day of connection!!
My line was enabled before the date my ISP (Pipex) said BT would enable it.

Or, alternatively, use your loaf and only install one on the incoming line
and wire all your extentions to that one filter. A lot cheaper.
