Got it.

rsgaz, thanks. That does answer my question. (And it's good that you did that and then addressed another potential problem I wasn't concerned with so it's good to know about that too.) There is a phone line, and it may go back to the house. Do you mean that I should use spare conductors in...

Man, have you ever tried CBT?

It's OK, I've sorted out your typo for you. :)

Jeez you guys are hard work!

Ok, to skirt the interference issue, which I'm not concerned about, perhaps pretend that I am linking two routers on separate phases with an FTP Ethernet cable. Can anyone see an issue with this?

If you wouldn't mind then..

I'm getting plenty of info about interference issues here, but can anyone other than endecotp actually answer the question? Is there any reason why I can't link two units on separate phases with an ethernet cable? I don't mind if you don't know the answer.

They're not useless, they've been working fine before the house was changed to three phase. And to do the job 'properly' (assuming you mean ethernet cable) will cost thousands.

Thanks for the reply. I'd be interested to know if there are any BS7671 regulations on this.

We have a house on three phases, the main house on phase one and the guest house on phase two. TP Link socket adapters are used to send ethernet from the upstairs router to the ground floor. In order to get a data connection to the guest house we can fit two single sockets in the meter...
