Have bought a house and doing renovation work to it now.
So here's the numpty question:
what's the best way of wiring up the rooms from the broadband connection so that I maximise speed around the house for laptops, PS3, streaming HD films etc. ?
I think my options are:
- 1Gbps homeplugs. Unfortunately Belkin appear to be the only people I can see that manufacture these and customer reviews are poor
- find a way of getting really long ethernet cables and running these around the house. Is this actually a feasible option?
- running cat5 wire around the house. I have read the forums and understand this may be a solution but need links to posts to understand how this would work.
Apologies if this has been asked before.
