By having the router tucked away on top of a display cabinet, means it's not visible all the time, nor are the wires, cable modem or power packs. The setup is in my living room which has to be kept neat and tidy (on orders from 'er indoors)!

My house is an old victorian semi, with the partition wall removed (which would normally divide the sitting and dining rooms). The chimmney breast on the sitting rooms side will have the cable modem stuck on it, so it won't be visible when i'm watching TV. As all of the computer and laptop equiment is upstairs, the height advantage may increase signal stability, as the signal will have to pass through the floor, and 2 walls in some cases.
