Cat6/Telephone
Invader75:
I need a phone line for a phone and ethernet for a router. 👍🏻
madires:
Would a cordless phone work for you?
Invader75:
Cordless fine but probably too far away from the house for the signal to reach. Approximately 15 metres.
madires:
15m shouldn't be a problem for DECT. Another solution would be VoIP. The telcos are migrating their telephone networks to VoIP anyway.

No conduit? Is that even legal?
There is weatherproof phone cable, of course. You can just run a new line.

The electrician wasn't chosen by us, he came with the people who were installing the annexe.
I just want a simple solution, or answer, to the problem.

The electrician was not chosen by you but what you wanted done was presumably specified by you. The time to ask for simple solutions was when you specified the work to be done. Now the simplest solution is probably to just run another cable.
