We found a builder spec home we like and before we move in I'd like to setup a wired network throughout the home. Cat5e or Cat6?
Switch? Types? Consider me an idiot. I'd like to have 10 drops throughout the home, plus wireless. I THINK I'm going to have it all run throughout the house to the master closet. Then I'd like to make a wireless AP in the middle of the house in a hall closet. Couldn't I just put a drop in that closet and put a wireless router there or?
So you need a switch AND a router right?
Internet Connection -> Cable Modem -> Router -> Switch -> Drops
That's how it goes, right?
Any suggestions on equipment? The switch? Router? Wireless AP?
