I'm looking for some advice please! We are in the middle of a complete renovation of a large 4 bed house with attached 2 bed annexe. floor plan below, floor space approx 280m2.
This project is requiring a complete rewire, due to start mid june.
We currently have Vodafone ISP on their fibre2 rate- this is coming in via copper but we are literally 10m from the box to getting speeds of 80mbps.
The main house (lounge and hall on floor plan below) has thick granite walls. the rest of the walls are block.
I am looking for advice about how best to achieve total coverage for the house. I've been looking at lots of options but I'm not sure what would be best bearing in mind the current work being done on the house (running new cables everywhere so no major bother to add in cat6 cable too).
The router will be located in the lounge.
My electrician was suggesting powerline. Would this be the best option to extend wifi to the whole property?
At the moment will be running the annexe and house on main internet, long term (5 years+ down the line) may run the annexe as a holiday let so would look at getting their own connection).
Any advice would be really appreciated, as the house is a complete building site, would like to make the most of it and run cables if this will be the best system but just not sure what system to use with this!
