I'm getting VDSL installed this week if all goes to plan.
My question is regarding the location of the splitter. I have an ADSL2+ capable splitter but it is not in the ETP. It's halfway through the ceiling on the end of several metres of wiring at least 30 years old. From there it goes to some UTP "Homelan" to the DSL jack.
The old wiring in question is thick, black, flat and definitely not twisted-pair of any kind. I assume it will not help, but I don't know. If it does, how much does it matter?
Should I ask for that wiring to be replaced\bypassed or is that standard practice for VDSL installs? I don't know why the previous technician chose the spot he did for the ADSL splitter except probably for ease of installation.
