Have you read the q&a on that offer. There's a severe restriction right at the bottom.

What I was getting at is that all power sources have internal resistance and the available voltage will be split across the internal resistance and the load. This will be the case even if the load is just a simple resistance. For example, suppose you have a 10V supply and a 1000ohm (1k) load...

How are you powering the circuit? The source impedance of the supply could be skewing the readings.. A diagram would be helpful

So it's not just me, then!

What I did was to get OR to install the NTE 5 with the unfiltered faceplate, then I ran a normal phone extension from that upstairs to where I wanted the router, where I installed a NTE 5 with filtered faceplate to which I could connect both the router and a phone. For the dowstairs phone...

Those pens detect the presence of a voltage above a given level, not the flow of current.

Not these days. Very few, if any, modern phones require the "bell" wire to "ring".

Not clear to me that there are any "incoming" connections. If the PI and the browser are on the same local subnet, then after the initial ARP query to determine the local MAC address of the Pi, no traffic goes through the routing function, only through the built-in wifi AP and switch. If the Pi...

I was about to make that same point. When directly connected your laptop has a globally visible IP address and is open to port scans and all sorts of attacks.

Excellent! That may not work for other ISPs though.

What makes you say that? DHCP is just the mechanism for the router to get its WAN address. It still needs the correct data link protocol, but a router may be abke to negotiate that. A PC almost certainly can't, which is why your original statement about a single device required qualification.

And what, exactly, do you believe the function of DHCP to be? It is NOT a data-link protocol. Hint - it stands for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol I'd suggest you do some reading: https://www.waterstones.com/book/interconnections/radia-perlman/9780201634488

Only if said device supports PPoE and you know how to configure it.

I asked that question in post #3 - no response so far.

You can get sockets with an extra contact for the shield ( my mixer and stage box has them) but most if not all domestic devices won't have them.

And when you say the SWA is "10mm" exactly which dimension are you referring to?

RFCs are a kluge, they are "deemed" to be compliant cos the regs say they are.

Clearly! More likely this was written somebody in the marketing department who knows nothing, and aimed at customers who are not expected to understand the technical detail anyway.

Well, the current carrying capacity of 16mm² 70C Thermoplastic SWA is between 78 and 97A (from table 4D4A), depending on how it is installed, which is less than the 100A fuse in the cut-out (if there really is a 100A fuse in there). So strictly speaking you can't use that cable with a 100A...
