Hey everyone!
Looking for advice, so, I’ll keep this short.
I want to run an ethernet cable from my living room (from the router) to the bedroom directly above. Unfortunately drilling holes in the walls isn’t an option as It is a rented house.
I currently use home plugs which work okay, but I don’t get the speeds I need.
Is it feasable to cut an ethernet cable sized hole in a wall outlet, and run the ethernet cable to the outlet directly above, in which I would also cut a cable sized hole for it to fit through? It seems like it would be straight forward, but I don’t want to get electrocuted haha. And I’m aware their will be a much better way to do this.
Any advice?
Thanks
you can run the wires beside each other it’s not going to make any difference for you. but it’s not always a direct shot from on plug to another…not usually anyway. Joist supports ,floor supports, insulation and lord knows what else could get in the way. if you say you don’t want to get electrocuted, then you are probably guaranteed to zap yourself
