Ok I moved into my house about 6 months ago and have been trying to figure out a good/easy way to get ethernet cable from my office (second floor) to the family room exactly below it. I do NOT want to cut holes (wife would kill me). Well the other day I was looking at the wall and notice that BOTH rooms have a phone jack, and both phone jacks measue exactly the same distance from the front wall. So I am assuming that this is because there is a STRAIGHT phone cable run from the one room to the other.
I have not pulled the phone jack box to see how big the hole is in the floor stud for the cable, if it is atleast 1/2" I think I should be able to fish a cable down.
Does anyone think this might be a possible way to run the cable I want, has anyone done something similiar? Any recommendations?
