Good evening. I get sky broadband some month ago and since from first day i have a problem with signals in all of my house. When engineering comes to fix fibre cable in my house i asked him to put a long cable but he refuse and said that fibre cable should be put just till socket. I want to put the sky router in the middle of the house. The ethernet cable i have is just 1 meter long and I had to put my router near the socket. To put it in the middle of house i need at least 15 meter cable. Would like to ask which ethernet cable i have to buy that is suitable with sky router. Thanks

And note there's no significant benefit to buying anything above Cat6.
Avoid cheaper non-Cat rated cable (typically copper clad aluminium)
