X10 repeaters etc

I'm having a few problems with X10 signals not getting to various places
around the house. I've got 40 odd mixed LD11's and AD10's in some
enclosures in the loft. The XM10U is in Node0 and has had problems in
other sockets in there (loads of computer kit, amps, etc). So, I've
thought about moving it near the LD11 enclosures and patching it into
the lighting circuit - there are 4 circuits running back to the consumer
unit downstairs in the utility room (a fair run). Can I make up a new
connection cable for the XM10U (probably 10m - 15m) with Cat5 - Anyone
done this?



Even doing this, I know the signal won't reach some sockets in the
lounge (I've tried the XM10U in loads of other places). It's quite odd
as there's no kit there that you'd expect to interfere. What's available
in the way of signal boosters? Can I run an additional XM10U in parallel
to the existing one (or as I suspect, would it interfere?).



Paul.
