RE: Time for cable...



This is true, assuming you value your time at significantly less than the minimum wage :-)

The marginal cost of simply getting four reels of CAT5, running four cables to every point, and not terminating (but carefully labelling) the ones you don't need is very little.

Running four sets takes no longer than running two.

Unless you enjoy crawling under floors, then run four to every point.

Just to run through what I'm CURRENTLY using.

- Master Bedroom - using 6 out of 8
- My study - using 3 out of 8
- Nursery - using 2 out of 8
- Sitting room - using 2 out of 8
- Mary's study - using 3 out of 8
- Kitchen - using 1 out of 0 (wireless sub-node :-) )

> I would double your cat5 points at least, but thats just what I would do.

LOL, I knew that would be the first response.  I can double them a a later
date because of the way the house is.  I may do anyway though.  Details of
what I intend/have done are at http://ha.andylaurence.co.uk although things
are moving quickly, so it's already out of date.
