Home move on the horizon to an area with cable/fibre broadband (not sure which!).

New house needs refurbishment & I need to plan & specify trunking & cabling for an up-to-date broadband/TV/telephone installation. I'd like something at least as capable as my present connection (which took some working out at the time).

Present house is in a 6mbs only BT ADSL area. In brief std tel wire from BT exchange arrives at front door master socket. Telephone is immediately filtered off & tel cable is daisy chained around the house to numerous sockets. Unfiltered ADSL signal goes via std tel cable to a Belkin wifi router at centre of house. Connection to PCs is via 4 CAT6e cables run to RJ45 wall sockets supplemented by WiFi.

Option 1 seems to be Virgin which tells me the new house is 'pre-wired' for virgin media cable/fibre & there should be a brown box on the outside wall with connections for also for telephone & TV. (I think they said there are 4 connections coming out of the brown box - which would be?) I can't recall what cabling, if any, there is indoors & it will be 10 days before I can return to check).

Please, what cabling (especially what type) & boxes do I need to get some semblence to my current set up?

Option 2 BT Infinity is being widely advertised in the area. All signs of old BT wiring have gone except drilled holes ;-)

What would a new broadband BT connection involve outside (eg cable laying)? Inside how similar could I make it to my current set up?

Does cable use ADSL signalling? What is the ideal way to connect to Virgin?

TIA for any and all advice and insights. The current installation is only 7 years old & took some working out then. I feel all at sea again!

Many thanks
