Since having full fibre my modem has been moved now I cant connect my landline

Since having full fibre installed, the modem has been moved to another room at the front of the house. Now I can't connect my landline as the cable is not long enough to reach from the telephone junction to the modem

@destinypheobe

Your handset plugs directly into the appropriate slot in the back of the hub. The old style phone sockets in your house are now redundant.

@destinypheobe you can buy telephone extension cables from many hardware stores or online.

But a more aesthetic solution might be to buy a cordless DECT phone, where a base station plugs into your broadband Hub, and the phone handset placed wherever you want it (or taken with you from room to room). The phone connects wirelessly to the base station to enable you to make and receive calls.
