Can I run an ethernet cable from my house to my shed - eviltoast

I was wondering if I could run an ethernet cable from my router inside to my shed and connect it to another router so I can have ethernet and wifi in my shed.

    You can, but depending on the setup you should be aware of a few things:

    • make sure you don’t have a ground potential difference.
    • use appropriate rated cabling and not plain UTP
    • you may want surge protection on that line coming in from outside

    Do your homework and stay safe.
