Mair is an unknown quantity at this point
need a longer cable

sorry if I'm posting in the wrong place or if someone has already posted similar. I need to move my pc 5 feet to the left but the cable from the box on the wall to the back of the modem won't reach. I rang up to ask for a longer cable but for this they will charge me £75 call out, plus the cable. This to me seems a ridiculous amount for 5 feet of cable. What is this cable - is it standard coax? Could I buy some and extend it myself? Virgin say I can't but surely it can be done? If anyone knows what cable I'd need to buy and how to do it please let me know! I was previously an ntl customer - Virgin media's customer support is worse than theirs was, IMO
