a new thought...

- a usb to cat5/cat3/RJ-11 connector with terminator for pinout testing
- same connector to check lines for open/broken wires, which can tell you how far down the wire the break occurs
- same connector and sensor wand to do line chasing in other rooms (tone generator)

So you've got that magic N800 that is capable of USB host mode then? Where'd you find it?
