[QUOTE="ChrisOfCatford, post: 684617, member: 23650"] Yes exactly! The network ports on your router are not designed to be under such stress. Switches (like HP Procurve etc) are designed for deployment in pro organisations and are more highly featured. You may have to shop around, but they become defunct so quickly that they turn up cheap after only a few years and still fully functional. I am in the process of doing all of this in my new home (1930s terrace) but as the electricians have recently re-wired, I was able to follow lifted floorboards even placed one network point directly under a mains socket, using the chased channel. How about ethernet over mains? I have never tried it, but it could be a solution for your inside clients. I bet your phone lines run above your skirtings though? Chris [/QUOTE]
