I’ve just had the smart hub plus and I need to purchase a longer cable. The cable I need is from the wall socket to the hub shown below. Can anyone advise please

 from the wall socket  to the router/hub. Are they standard or do I need something specific?

@Janeywillow : Order a Cat 5E or better Ethernet cable of the length you need.

Although the Ethernet cable will fit at the socket end, it won't fit into the RJ11 socket in the router.

An RJ11 cable should be the one tp order.

Duh! Thanks, @Mustrum . I keep mixing up RJ11 with RJ45.
