Discuss hard wiring a computer point in the Electrical Wiring, Theories and Regulations area at ElectriciansForums.net

From what you are saying, the existing setup is just a bt line, with built in filter plates......this is not a network, its a broadband phone line....so if you require internet access, you must plug the router into on of the rj outlets you wish to use. This wll only allow you to use one computer.
 
good chance its rj11 ports not 45, will need a filter where they want the router.

best idea is to pull a seperate cable to each point then put in a switch then a cable from there to where they want the router. (put switch in loft/garage etc somewhere easy to add to)



the rj11 are phone points rj45 are ethernet cables
 
Thing is it is so simple to get a broadband connection where the client wants it, my router has 6 ethernet connection points on the back which means I could have 6 points around the house, most have 3 or 4 as standard, it is also wifi as are all modern routers, regarding filters, everywhere you connect anything to a phone line or ethernet point you add a fiter first, thats a given, the existing 3 cables are irrelevent IMO, if the customer has a router which the OP said he does then just run a new cable to the positions the customer wants, op=consider yourself dismissed
