Strung copper across the floor, wife loves it
from the router to my computer, turned off the WI-FI and configured the Ethernet network. Computer, to switch, two other ports, one weather station computer, the other terminates at new modem/router/WI-FI hardware.
Like a copper internet connection, solid steady speeds, WI-FI, suffers some from interference. Any air broadcast signal does, just the way it is. With everyone sporting WI-FI these days, adds to the congestion ........ think traffic jam @ rush hour and things slow down.
Folks talk about ISP's throttling back network speed, I cannot prove that. Copper remains the same all day everyday. However I can detect speed changes and connection stalls on the WI-FI, 2.5 and the 5gb channels.
Now I have the Ethernet running, it's time to run the cable below the floor. Will not be to bad, have one hurtle to over come. There is a 2 x 10, 7ft in from the front edge of the garage wall. It spans between two floor joices of the bedroom floor. I must drill a hole in the lower corner to get the cable in the bedroom and up thru the floor.
So I'm building an 8ft drill bit in the morning and will have my way with it. talk about a single use tool bit .....LMAO it will look like a lance
Enough rambling, report back later
