| Dogs Rule said: Actually, my wireless comment was about the phone ,as in getting good quality DECT cordless phones in your home (I'm not talking cell phone). That way if you rewire your system you can make it as simple as possible: a 2 way splitter jack and a 15 meter jack and wire assembly. Plug the splitter in the phone company's jack (you might have to have them install one if your current phone system just has wires connected to each other instead of a jack) Then you plug your 15 meter assembly into the splitter and put its jack where you want your phone to be (but you'll also have up to 6 handsets positioned in the house).). Then you plug your modem into the 2nd hole of the splitter with as short and new a wire as you have. That way all your wires are as short and new as possible. Although you probably will need a wireless router, since it might not be convenient to have all your stuff close to where your new modem location will be. |
All the phones have been changed to cordless but their bases are still hooked up to the old existing phone line points around the house, splitters on all of them. And I moved the wireless modem to a phone point in the middle of the house but the house is kind of long so I'm losing coverage in areas, a second router would do the job fine giving me a nice big network (good also for the WLAN) so everythin will be hooked up : ) pc, laptop, ps3, psp, internet radio.
