Help
I have a sky+ cable going to a room upstairs and another one to a room down stairs. I also have a broad band cable going to a room upstairs in addition to the normal telephone connections and a wireless router.
All these emanate from the single telephone socket.
The result is an absolute mess of wires and various connectors.
Could anybody please tell me how to sort this out so that it looks reasonable.
I have taken a photograph of the mess but have not been able to load it on computer !

Well, if your broadband comes thru a normal phone line, just make telephone extensions, and use a ADSL splitter on each socket, or use ADSL sockets - these have 2 sockets on one plate, and have a built in splitter. Hide the router in a cupboard with a phone socket.

The sky connections - you can get sky sockets with a Male plug on them.
This one has a TV socket too

I want broadband in but I understand I have to have every telephone line thru an adsl filter, my whole house is going to be spaghetti! will wireless broadband solve this problem? please help!!!
 
no not really. Every phone point must have a broadband filter on it. This includes sky boxes.
