New-build house, what is this box?
Discussion
You should mount the router in the middle of the property, hence cupboard under the stairs is often cited.
If you imagine the router broadcasts WiFi in all directions in an invisible bubble of internet signal, that bubble wants to encompass the whole house, not half the garden or half the front drive.
I am aware that is a modem and a router is still required (in the middle of the house!) lol

Hi - apologies for picking up an old thread but it fits my situation perfectly 😀
Just moved into a new build apartment and have the same box installed in a hall cupboard. There is a coiled Ethernet cable hanging out of the bottom and also a coiled telephone cable.
BT have sent me ftth Home Hub but if I connect it to the Ethernet cable hanging out of the wall box then my Home Hub will be in the cupboard and probably not the best place, also miles from the TV. Will I have to extend the Ethernet cable out of the cupboard to where I want to site the Home Hub? Figure I will one way or another either to HH or the TV box - am I missing something?
Thanks
