Help with random cable!

Options
Hi, can anyone help me solve this mystery?
http://twitter.com/kath_egg/status/635932637174067201/photo/1
This cable in my new house runs into my sitting room from upstairs. There's no phone line in the wall downstairs. My broadband went live today so I plugged the random cable into the router and it didn't work. I've now plugged the router into the master socket upstairs via a micro filter and it works fine.
I need my wireless router to be downstairs so I can plug it in to my Youview box. A mega long Ethernet cable is an option but I'm not keen on all the wires.
The previous owners had Sky TV and broadband if that provides a clue.

Many thanks for any help :)
