Who is the ISP (provider)? You should not need filters for VDSL. Have they sent you the correct modem/router? Has anyone (Openreach) been along to change the master socket?

Previously you would get an engineer visit and they would install an ssfp socket that had a built in filter. BT now supply diy fibre installs, you get a hub5 (has a built in modem) and if you don't already have an ssfp you need to use a standard filter just like you did with normal adsl.

I guess something/one has to support all the 'half price for 6 months' offers being rammed don our throats.

Interesting, had a BT 'business' broadband put in end of last year and they still provided the new socket and white Openreach modem.

Business will still get a visit , for residential it depends on what the isp requests .
