Ello, bit of help if someone can.
I'm probably getting fibre through Zen or BT-Infinity on one of my lines in the house.
The computer/router it'll be hooked to is on the first floor of the house, what kind of cable will i need to run the extension from the mastersocket at the door upto the computer room.
I have two options from what i understand
#1 leave the modem at the door and run networking cable from it to the router upstairs over ppoe.
#2 run cable with rj11 adapters from the socket to the room upstairs having both the router/modem within a meter or two of themselves hooked with a short length of network cable.
Just unsure what type of cable it is i actually need and which is the better option of the two for say 30-40m.
Is the cabling for option #1 just bog standard cat5e with rj45 connections?
And what type of cabling is it for the rj11 route?
any help would be great thanks.
