Hi, I have used power line broadband sockets to get broadband in our sprawling bungalow for some years with no problems.
But suddenly it has gone down from 20 meg to 0.1 meg all other sockets tested give 20 meg.
I have turned the power off and tightened the screws. The socket is still providing power. It appears to be on the upstairs ring main switch.
I am a competent person with 15 years phone fault experience.
I have a standard multi meter with tone test.
Is there a good cheep wire tracing tool I buy? Something that would give an increased tone at the fault location? Or do I need to physically trace the wire in our tight loft space?
Thanks Tony
