I'd like to change the location of the telephone socket in our house and in the same process update the wiring as it is ancient and possibly impacting our connection speed, but I'm not sure if I'm 'allowed'.
As far as I've read, there are no regulations to prevent me but I was wondering if the wiring is still the property of the provider, despite it being in the house?
The wire from outside (recently replaced) connects into a box, similar to the top picture
here and then runs directly to the phone socket. This website suggests that if I wanted more sockets then I need to contact the service provider, but I want to replace like for like, just in a different place.
If anyone has any knowledge or advice that would be greatly appreciated.
