        Packed all weekend and our place looks like a disaster right now 😞

        Sounds like the house when my wife starts cleaning up.

        "cleaning up"

        I call it shuffling the piles of stuff around.

        Garbage Tetris

        When did you see my garage?

        There is an IoT thing in there somewhere, we can all see it!

        I'd suggest a drinking game where we do shots every time that +scottalanmiller shows up in frame, but we all know his propensity for garages and I don't think it wise for people to get alcohol poisoning.

                    Why upgrade the cabling? Is the CAT5e not living up to expectation?

                      Yeah I can't imagine Cat5e being a bottleneck

                          @EddieJennings If you're staying within the network, you're greatest bottleneck will probably be the wireless or the router. If going out, then your ISP is going to be your bottleneck. Unless you just have some either really old or really crappy network cables in your house, or you're installing new.

                            @scottalanmiller No valid technical reason.

                            I'm installing a patch panel in another room (overkill, but meh), so the cable was truly intended for that, as I'm currently out of extra Cat 5e cable. Each room will have a run of 12 cables.

                            The original room only had a few cables run, as cabling it was done with whatever cable I had lying around at the time.

                              So you're just adding onto the existing? or your ripping and replacing because the new patch panel is in a new room?

                                Twelve? Damn, that's more than me. We did four to each normal room, six to my bedroom and the dining room (which has a spot that makes this make sense and is right against the cabling plant location) and then like ten or more to my office. But most rooms, like the kids' bedrooms is only four each.

                                  @Dashrender Both. New room is now getting a patch panel (and cat 6 cables). Old room is going to have the 5 cables it had, replaced with cat 6. Its patch panel remains.

                                    Yeah. This more of an exercise in making and running cable. There's no real technical value for my apartment.

                                    If I'm ever a home owner, then much more thought will go into the cable run.

                                      It's interesting that you're doing this in an apartment. You are allowed to cut holes in the wall or are you doing this a different way?

                                          @wirestyle22 Running cable along the floor against the wall. When I cross a doorway, I'll either use a wire mold like thing to cross on the floor, or run the cable along the door frame.

                                            I may hire someone to do this perfectly in my new home. In a few years I'm going to be really out of practice. House needs cable porn.
