I recently had FTTP installed in the house. The install meant that the ONT had to be installed at the front of the house. My son's room as at the back of the house and over WiFi he gets a signal but with slower speeds and ping.
I had been going to run some Ethernet from the router to his room and had hoped to use the route currently occupied by the telephone extension socket, or by the TV coaxial point. I tried pulling both of these but other than the small amount of extra cable tucked away they won't budge. Does this suggest that the cables have been clipped into position and that I have no chance of resuming these routes? If so running cable isn't an option until we next decorate. Is it worth looking at powerline? The adaptor next to the router will be on the ground floor and the one in my son's room will be first floor so they are on different ting mains circuits. Does that matter?
Thanks,
Paul
