I am getting ready to do some wiring in my house. It's 30 years old and the previous owners had all the phone and video wiring done on the exterior. It looks like crap and the phone lines are shot so I am going to rewire.

I am planing on putting in Cat6 for the computer, RG6 for video and new phone line (cat 3/4?).

I have a few questions for those who are in the know.


- is there an advantage to running dual RG6/Cat6 lines to the rooms as opposed to single lines?

- is phone line Cat3 or 4? Is there an advantage to running dual lines for phone as well?

- What is the best/cheapest way to split the Cat6? I have 3 rooms. I run my desk top off of one Cat6. VoIP runs on a second Cat6, Bluray in the family room uses one so I am thinking I will need a second router right?

- is regular RG6 what the satellite folks use or do they use something else? I was looking at stuff like this RG6

Any other ideas suggestions?
