    Folks

    Have UPC triple play with the result that all the cables, wireless router, modem are lying around the ground beside the TV.
    Is there a storage box that you can get that tidies this up?
    We've a just started crawling baby and she makes a beeline for the wires whenever my head is turned.
    I;ve looked at the PC world website but all they seem to have are TV stands. Any suggested solutions?
    Thanks

    Shorter cables and cable ties? Or a shelf a few feet off the ground to get them out of her way? You cannot really enclose them in a box because they may fail due to over heating, and may be a fire risk.

    A shelf would be fine except she'd pull them all down on herself

    What about a shelf and using cable clips to tack the cable from an extension lead and the NTL cable to the wall?

    You can also ask NTL to move your point for the broadband, it costs €50 I think.
