Have all the data cables terminated in a central location where you have electricity, phone, and cable - and plan on installing the modem and router there. It should be as close to the center of the house as possible, preferably on a middle floor. They should use Cat5e at the least. It would NOT hurt to have a data outlet and an electrical outlet in the attic in case you have to put a wireless access point up there. If you are going to do this, your central termination point can be anywhere, basement is fine to keep it out of the way.
