It won't as long as your extension wiring uses twisted-pair cable.
Unfortunately, many cheap 'n' nasty extension kits use flat ribbon
cable, which is very lossy at ADSL frequencies.  This is why most ADSL
suppliers suggest that punters use the master socket for their modem, to
eliminate the effects of these extensions.
