Hi,
I have a 3 storey house with a cat6 wired network installed.
The house is made pretty much of concrete.
The basement contains a technical room with my switch and NAS etc. All the other rooms' ethernet cables make their way to this technical room, finding the switch via a patch panel.
I asked my electrician to make the technical room the telephone provider entry point to the house; so my router/modem box can be placed close to the switch.
This also means the main telephone point is in the technical room.
My question revolves around setting up the home phone system - bearing in mind I have this network setup and one telephone line in the basement and thick concrete slabs overhead, is there a way i can exploit my wired network to link a few home phones together throughout the house- or is there a better way using wifi range extenders etc?
Cheers!
Tony
