Need to extend the wire from socket to hub

[Rachel841]

I have just had sky broadband put in but the grey cable that comes with it one white end one purple isn't long enough to put hub where want it, what cable do I need to buy 

[Chrisee]

@Rachel841 if the hub conects to a phone socket you need a cable sold as a DSL cable which comes with rj11 plugs on each end easily founf online or in just about any electrical or DIY store. You dont need anything special if its under say15m long. 

If you have a full fibre connection (the cable goes to an Openreach box with 4 leds) then you need a simple ethernet cable with rj45 connectors again widly availablle in barying lengths.

@Rachel841 

That's 'BT plug to RJ11'

[Rachel841]

Is it known as bt plug or Adsl to rj11

[TimmyBGood]

@Rachel841 

'ADSL to RJ11' could have RJ11 plugs at both ends.

I'd suggest using a vendor with photographs.

Worth noting that since you don't have a dual port master socket you really should be using a microfilter
