it’s a world-turvy topsy!

gah, I’m an idiot. Yes, you’re quite right. Somehow I read the longer rants, but missed the last shorter post which was peak BS.

edit: nix this.

they never justified anything.

they explained.

explained why they were raging assholes or whatever.

but didn’t justify.

I think you need to find out what kind of connection you actually have. I mean, it’s unlikely you’ve got a dedicated ethernet cable to the ISP.

Where does that ethernet line actually go?

Have you run some basic traceroutes, at least?

I’ve run cables between floors, down stairs and such. Stairs make things easier, because you can run the cable across them without tripping anyone, or needing to cover them. You can wind through bannisters to avoid using tape too.

Also, you should only be running one cable, and putting a switch at the other end.

Q: why is running a cable across the house not an option?

it’s not length, since 30m should be enough for most mcmansions.

it’s not cost, since cables are fairly cheap. Cheapest option there is.

you run along wall edges, taking the long way if you have to. When crossing open areas, you lay a rubber cable protector over the top (or a strip of carpet with a gutter cut out underneath), to stop tripping and make it look nice.

absolutely agree with the mesh wifi. Two stations, one at your NAS, one near you. They’ll form a direct high-speed link between each other. Zero effort. Faster than Powerline ethernet, and most other options.

it was on Hulu.

OP has discovered Tapirs exist.

yes, but the question is “why is it bad/worse?” and the answer is “management needs to pull their finger out”
