Would a length of copper gas pipe do?
I have a bunch lying around is all, i'd rather not have to buy something as it will likely cost if it has anything to even do with copper ;p

Also this dropping of the adsl happens even when I am running everything off the genset if i power on the grounded inverter at the same time as the satelite TV is on.
(genset is grounded in a similar fashion but is a good 50metres away from house)

As in just turning on this inverter, even with nothing plugged into it.

If I turn it on while the satelite TV box is powered OFF, the ADSL is OK

If I remove the ground wire from the inverter all is GOOD.

Definately the grounding seems to be the issue.

Phone tech is supposedly coming today sometime to investigate, but being friday(almost afternoon) I'm not holding my breath....
