I'm wondering if its feasable to run a RJ11 cable outside the house at all, if so what cable recommended, what brand does suitable cables(guessing 10-15metres of very good quality).
At the moment on Be* i can get 11-12mb on the extensions through the house but 16-18 on the test socket behind the master socket. Our extension wiring is awful and noisy added to the fact its going to be impossible to replace.
The problem is, wireless, i generally hate so really need the 3 upstairs computers used for downloading and lots of gaming, to be wired and not have cables trailing up the stairs.
I want to stick a high quality filtered replacement faceplate on the master socket so I can filter out the ADSL right there ignoring all the crappy extension cabling, then connect the existing extensions after the filter which should minimise or completely get rid of any noise caused. We've had holes drilled in the wall at the front of the house and the upstairs computer room previously for a Virgin net/tv install which means a cable from the filtered master socket, through hole, up outside of house to the computer room seems like the best method.
Is that possible, fine and should work? Then do I need to get specific kind of RJ11 cable, extra shielding, some brand that does weatherproof cabling thats much thicker or something along those lines.
