What's the best way to run a temporary eth cable? - eviltoast

I’m planning out my next homelab when I move soon. I have the floor plans and it looks like the best place for my computer is not centrally located, so the Wi-Fi won’t be ideal. I’d like to run the cables a short distance so the router would be in a better spot.

I’m just renting and will likely only be here for a year so I don’t want to do any drilling. I just want to secure the cables somehow to the crease where the wall and ceiling meet.

The total length will only be about 20 feet to the router.

    Don’t buy dlink ones if you have arc fault breakers. They’ll randomly trip them, even on totally different circuits.

    Fuck powerline over Ethernet. Took me way too long to identify the cause.
