  • You should put your modem next to the master socket, rather than extending the VDSL

    Not an option, as master is in loft without power.

    Yep that's what I have, this pair on the inside?

  • Not an option, as master is in loft without power.

    I had the same problem (of my own creation admittedly, because the master socket was somewhere else originally but in a dumb place) so I ran power to mine.

    I also installed LED bulkhead lights, four ethernet cable runs to elsewhere in the house and a bunch of smart home stuff. It's still a work in progress so the wiring and so on will eventually be tidier.

    @jellybaby is right in that running ethernet is a better solution, but knowing when to stop is also a gift (that I basically don't have).

  • I have a vague plan of doing this in mine if I can get ethernet and power up there (I need to drill a hole in the chimney breast and see if I can get some wires all the way from the loft to the lounge).

    The loft does get pretty hot though so think I'll just stick a temperature sensor up there to start
