I am having FTTC connected in a couple of weeks time and want to set up a new connection for my router that will do away with all the unsightly surface wiring BT have installed over the years.
My current plan is for Openreach to install their modem adjacent to an NTE5 in the hallway and connect this via a patch lead to a RJ45 socket in an adjacent built-in cupboard. I am thinking of running CAT5E from this socket, via the loft and another built-in cupboard, to another socket, adjacent to my desk. I will connect my Billion 7800n router to this.
I have found some basic network wiring info on the TLC site -
I understand that the single run of CAT5E should be able to feed a phone socket as well as the RJ45 outlet - if this is so which strands?
