It's a brick job but someone has got to do not.
 
Maybe not the right thread.
Is there a product you can use to extend your WIFI but using an internal phone wire? Sort of like TP-link but using a phone wire instead?

I think it can be done with power lines? But not sure it can be done with phone wire.. If you mean using the actual cable as a WiFi transmitter?

Yep power cables do work, using products like the TP-Link (which I have) as long as the sockets are on the same circuit. But speed varies wildly and it has not been working too well for me. There is however an unused phone line running exactly from the main router to where I want it, so I was hoping to piggyback on this line instead (I wonder if some sort of phone to ethernet adapter could do it?). If I get a connection I'll retask a spare router I have to broadcast a new WIFI at point B.

Hmmm if the phone line isn't active, you won't be able to use it. You'll likely need a techy to connect it wherever the interwebz is coming onto the property first.

Edit: Also depends on the type of phone line, different providers use different infrastructure.
