If you are handy, it is very easy to move the electric outlets on interior walls I helped a couple of neighbors do this. All wiring comes from the attic down the walls, so it is easy to pull the wire out of an existing outlet an place in what is called an "old work" box that you just installed.
As for Galaxy, I have had mixed results, they did the original low voltage wiring in out house, some of which had to be repaired under warranty, and then I had to repair the work that was done for the repair. I was not happy. Some of the original low voltage wiring left NO excess wiring in the boxes, making future work or connections very hard to do.

I could be wrong, but I think, if you don't want to use wireless phones, you can just connect a phone line from the cable modem to the nearest phone jack, and that will energize all of the phone jacks in the house.
