Nice job

Although I think a compressor and an air hammer may be overkill for plasterboard walls

Did you route everything to the loft or just to a room where the router/hub/switch/server sits ?

 

The loft (that pic is actually the main bedroom). Behind the TV I have 3x Cat5 and several aerials etc. Can be tricky for downstairs rooms but I pretty much have routes planned for everything now. I try to do each room as we decorate - I am fortunate in having block & plaster walls which are easier to channel and make good than plasterboard. Server sits in the loft aswell.

Excellent I do miss not having brick and plaster walls when it comes to stuff like this.

 

Need to smash the complete innards out of our house (well - maybe thats a bit strong). Management in the lounge is all in the walls. but no wired lan sockets. PC/Work room is a tangle of 3 pcs and 21 sony CRT all CAT5 wired to DLINK 6-2xx+ 111mbs wireless - surge gang plugs every where - aways powered up.

Teenage Daughter has an MSI Mega PC/NEC LCD, 5 channel system perminently busy as ether a tv, a stereo or a puter.

Chill room all wireless and Xbox via a Dlink DWL-810+ wireless bridge. I want to be able to stream to every room and have all the media up on one of the servers - and a 'plasmay - shaumone' and projector for the chill room - dreams dreams dreams - too much wire

Think last leccy bill was about 78 quid

Still no luck with my samba shares.
