[QUOTE="timo_w2s, post: 921875, member: 196043"] My parents house is pretty sold, with concrete floors and an open plan living room area so there was no way to hide cables without putting in false skirting so going outside was the easy option for me, just two holes to worry about. Not sure I understand the issue with wireless. The modem/wireless router could stay at the far end of the property were wifi is required. At your end you could have a 5 port switch or something to plug in your equipment (if you need more than one network connection). If you use home plugs it may kill off parts of the radio spectrum as the internal wires in your house start transmitting crap. I used home plugs temporarily for a year at my parents house but they occasionally lost the connection and needed a restart. it was another reason I decided to run a bit of cat5, much more stable.
