Hey Rod,

Thanks for the suggestions. They are on a pre-existing Telstra line
and going to Naked ADSL2+ which means that the router needs to be next
to the phone line, which needs to be next to the phone (running off
VoIP).

They don't want the main phone next to the TV in the lounge room and
there's no other phone port in the house.

I also need to get their primary PC connected to the switch on the
router, so I just figured the easiest thing would be to run a external
phone cable under the floor to the computer room and do it all from
there.

If there's a better way I'm all ears!
