RE: Re: Going completely wireless?



If your cabling is running externally then use an external grade cable
- it
will have a UV stable sheath that will also be thicker to help give it a
bit
more protection. If not using external grade then you really need to run it
in conduit.

This was suggested by my father at the weekend. It's a painful route (I
checked) but there's an old sky cable coming in from outside whose hole I
could re-appropriate. I presume cat5 is happy being outside in all
weathers..

As for SWMBO being mean, it's because the house is a new purchase and
doesn't want yours truly messing up with botched jobs ;( A few months
without the media server, and I'll have permission ;)

As long as she doesn't read this group!
