    I am putting in a new telephone extension for my computer. I will be getting broadband in the near future and I need about approx 20yds of wire from where the main telephone junction box is
    Would the type you can buy in a hardware store do or do I need a better quality
    what type of wire would be best for this?

    Bog standard telephone cable will suffice.I'm using a dodgy 30metre ol' extension cable at the moment which must be 10+ years old (haha) and have no problems.

    P.S. Twisted pair works best for the lowest interference.
