Introduction to ADSL
ADSL sometimes called broadband is a service that allows you to connect to the Internet via your telephone line. It is a far superior service to any normal dial-up access and functions at up to 40 times faster. ADSL once installed also allows you to connect to the Internet and use the same telephone line for voice calls or faxes simultaneously. You may also connect more than one PC and so run a LAN from the same connection.
It is a service that is very easy to install and does not require anything other than a normal single BT phone line and an ADSL modem or ADSL Router and a Microfilter. As soon as we receive your order we will email you a confirmation and then contact you within five working days to inform you of the progress of your order. The whole process normally takes a maximum of ten working days.
Requirements for an ADSL Connection
There are a number of factors that will dictate if your telephone line is suitable for the ADSL service.
1. First and foremost you must have a normal single BT phone line. If you already have a BT Phone Line then please ensure the BT Phone Line Rental Account is in your name or in the name of a person who has agreed to this service. The ADSL service you purchase with adesiyan.com will run against the current holder of the BT phoneline rental account that you specify. If this person stops or amends their BT Rental account in anyway then the ADSL order and service will automatically be cancelled and you will have to reorder your service.
3. The phone line cannot be an ISDN line, a Redcare Alarm line, a PABX system (i.e.part of an internal switchboard system), a Cable line or any other fibre optic line. However if you do have an ISDN Line then we can arrange a conversion please see under'Can I Convert an ISDN Line to ADSL?'
4. ADSL is a service that is run on your normal BT phone line. Your phone line is connected to a BT exchange and the length of your cable could be several kilometers long. ADSL can only function on a phone line that is no longer than 6km and from an exchange that has been enabled with this service. If your phone line exceeds this specified maximum length or your local exchange has not been enabled with the ADSL equipment then I am afraid this service cannot be provided.
5. The quality of your line must also be of a high enough standard that the ADSL frequencies function correctly. If we discover the quality is too low then this service cannot be provided. Line quality is measured in decibels and the higher the decibel reading the lower the quality of your line.
