Connect modem and router via Powerline adapter

[Zaphan58]

Hi all, I'm switching from Virgin to Sky so will be using the phone socket. Trouble is the phone socket is the baby's room. Call me paranoid but I'd rather not have a wireless router sat right next to the cot.

I'm thinking of putting the modem in one room next to the socket and the wireless router in another and connect them via Powerline adapter. Would that work? I have read mixed things with some saying it won't work if there is more than one powerline adapter in the house.

Hi thanks for the replies. I should have been more clear in the original post. I already have a separate modem / router I can use and some powerlines adapters. I could put the modem next to the line socket and then run an ethernet to the router but trying to avoid the faff of finding a way to hide the cable.
