in my job fixing internet connections (here in the UK) I constantly collide with bad adsl signals and dodgy home telephone wiring and I need a device that tests the presence/level/quality of the adsl signal on the line - something I can plug into the BT socket and get an accurate reading. I specifically want to test for any deterioration in the adsl signal in extension sockets coming off the main socket. I figured there must be a gadget somewhere that can do this but I've never seen one. I've heard the argument about using routers but I'm not interested in that, I'd rather get a dedicated device. Does anyone know of such equipment? thanks for any advice.
