Or cheat... work out the best place for the comms hub with power,
central location, space for equipment etc, and move the phone master

I was very lucky here. The previous occupants of teh house lived
downstairs, and elderly mother lived upstairs (her daughter had mobility
problems, and she didn't). She had the master phone socket fitted in her
living room (previous large upstairs bedroom), and a cable was run to an
extension downstairs.

This happened to be the room we chose as an office (the other large
bedroom wasn't as convenient, and a bit smaller). The corner where the
master socket was located was already chosen for the equipment rack. So
the router is about 0.5 metres from the master socket.
