Moving my phone/ broadband socket from upstairs

EduardGabriel

Hi there

Our existing broadband phone line comes into the house through the windows upstairs for some reason but we need to move it because we are adding secondary glazing to all the windows

Orange want to charge us £105 to move the cable elsewhere (downstairs probably)

Is there a cheaper alternative to that?

The black drop cable needs to be removed from the Master socket, making note of the colors (usually yellow and white) and how they are connected to terminals A and B.

Assuming the drop cable is long enough, you can reinstall the Master socket anywhere you want.

You are not supposed to do it yourself, of course.

I'll do it for £80 if your close...
