I am looking at relocating my router and switches that I have to one place, in a small cabinet in my garage. There will be a firewall, modem and switch in a small cabinet mounted on the wall with a telephone socket and networks sockets/patch panel in it so that 1 I can plug the ADSL modem in and secondly connect to the rest of my network.

Will it be ok located in the garage, this is attached to the house and is all dry and secure although it does get that bit colder in there during the winter.

Can anybody see any issues against this as I plan to get the cabinet on the wall tomorrow and then arrange for my friend who is a ex BT engineer to come and put me a socket in.

Thanks in advance.
