Answer to some popular questions by Telephone Engineer Geoff Grove
I’ve had Fibre Broadband installed, and now none of my Landline sockets work. What can I do? – This is a very common question but yes – we can re connect your old telephone sockets around the house and get them working again perfectly.
So many times I hear people say “But they told me my Broadband will only work in a Main Socket, and not an extension”..
Absolute rubbish – Providing that you don’t have any faults on your telephone extension sockets or telephone wiring you will get Internet connection where ever your Router is plugged in, unless you have a BT Digital Filter Front Plate fitted.
Some people are so fed up with Call Centres. Eventually they discover a local Independent Telephone Engineer
like myself, and I get to calm them down – I’m almost like a counselor! 🙂
Relief – now you’ve found me you don’t have to spend hours talking to Calcutta any more!
Another frustrated Customer gasped, “I couldn’t understand any of the advisers. I would have been better off calling the local Kebab shop for help and advice to fix my BT Line Fault. The adviser blamed my equipment so I brought new phones, only to find it was a BT external fault incorrectly diagnosed!”

Where some big companies go wrong by outsourcing
A lady called me – “I’m having blinds fitted and a telephone Junction Box is in the way. I need a Telephone Engineer, can you move it?”
She continued, “I tried using BT Online Chat on their BT.com website. The foreign person on the keyboard at the other end couldn’t understand me – they didn’t know what a blind was!”
I’m an Ex BT Telephone Engineer who used to work for BT Openreach. I have been trained to high standards up to 2011 when I left the company. We can fix any internal fault with your telephone equipment regardless of who your Service Provider is. We can trace a fault and determine if it’s with your own equipment or on the Openreach Virgin Talktalk or Sky Telephone network. If the problem is proved to be external it enables you to get the fault fixed free of charge by your Service Provider.

Have an additional telephone socket or CAT6 network cable connected to your Sky Box or relocate an existing socket. Move your Router to another room and tidy up your wiring to speed up your Internet connection. Pick up the phone, call me, and your Telephone Repair will all be done for you!
Avoid expensive call out charges from your Service Provider
If the fault is found to be with your own telephone wiring or Broadband equipment.
Remove the front panel if you have this latest style Master Socket called an NTE, then plug your phone into the Test Socket arrowed. If your line is not working you possibly have a BT External Network fault. Call your service provider who will arrange Openreach to fix your Telephone Fault free of charge *see note below*.
You pay line rental so Openreach are responsible for the line from the exchange up to and including the Master Socket.
For external faults on the Openreach network phone BT Faults. Simply dial 151 after you have verified that the problem is on their wiring, and not your own.
*Note* Dampness or corrosion around the socket and wiring inside your property is chargeable.
If BT are not your service provider look on your phone bill for the correct number to call. Your service provider will then instruct Openreach on your behalf to investigate the fault.
Still confused? You can call me, Telephone Engineer Geoff Grove, and I will talk you through and see if I can help you! End the misery of being antagonized by a Call Centre in India. Nor have any problems understanding what I’m saying to you! 🙂

Hi Geoff I am an independent telephone engineer with 30 plus years experience I am also a fibre splicer /tester I do faulting tidyups cat 5 and 6 to outbuildings etc I’m looking to increase my work load if you need an extra engineer on your map I am willing
Hi Alan Tulip, yes please very interested, give me a call or fill out the form on my Contact Me page many thanks!
My internet provider has now disconnected my landline telephone service and provided me with an interface cable to reconnect my DECT facility directly into my router using VOIP. It works fine. However my DECT system is now in the worst location rather than where is was before in the hall middle of the house, so I need to move my router (which will improve coverage in the house) and enable my DECT system to simply plug in to the router. So I called Goeff for advice.
I have just spent 5 mins talking with Geoff which has confirmed my idea of splitting an internal CAT5 cable to extend my Internet (Router) to a new location in the hall, and replacing the old RJ11 phone socket with a new BT slave face plate. Using just 2 wires for the internet service, I am able to utilise the remaining 6 spare wires to re-connect an old Printer back at the original location. I will have to jumper the existing BT master socket 2 wires to the Cat5 and reconnect them at the new location into the new Slave BT socket (6 pin Ethernet port) and provide an additional RJ45 port on the face plate to re-connect the printer to the new router position. At the original BT Master socket I also need to add an RJ45 socket to re-connect to the stand alone printer. (not sure how to accomplish this yet without taking out the original BT Master Socket MK3 which I dont want to do)
I wasnt sure if the original filtered BT master socket could be jumpered across to the new location without messing up the internet speed and causing interference, but Geoff recons its OK to do so. It is very satisfying to talk with an expert who understands what youre trying to achieve, without a load of ballony.
