Disclaimer: I live in Europe, so my house’s walls are made of bricks and mortar, no plasterboard to easily cut / patch up.
I have a room that is generally cooler than the rest of my home and it’s also far away from my bedroom, so I setup my home lab there. Until now, I managed with WiFi, but I switched operators due to soaring prices and I got screwed since the download / upload speed on this one is kinda shitty. Hence, I want to pass LAN cables from my home lab to my home office, which would mean going through two rooms or, correspondingly, two doors. Since it’s my property, I thought of cutting a couple of centimeters from the door frame and then lead the cables through a skirting board and then through the space cut up from the door frame. What do you think? Any other idea?
If you want something that looks good, there are raceways that fit pretty well with the skirting boards and look like they’d be part of them. Otherwise you can tie the network cable to the botton of the wall/skirting board and go in the space under the door. That’s what I did at my place.
One thing though, you were good with wifi before, you should still be good as the cable will only affect your local network, which is also what the wifi does. Unless you’re using your ISP’s router for wifi which you can just get a good access point and use it instead of your ISP’s router for wifi.
