Can you pull CAT5 with the existing CAT3? Often you can do that pretty easily.
Also, CAT3 is rated for fast ethernet (10/100).

Good point. Might just work.

This. You just tie the cat5 to the end of the cat3 and as you remove it you also pulling in a new cable. Half the work. EX girlfriends dad taught me that when I was younger (he was an electrician)
yea I always tie the old drop to the new drop, makes it so much easier (unless they stapled them to the studs - mostly residential issues - special place in hell for those "helpful" people). If you cant pull through that way, get some string and tie it top and bottom. Make sure the string is 110-120% the length of the drop so that you have wiggle room.
I've always wondered if anyone has rigged up some PVC piping in a clever way to make cable drops easier or something akin to it. Obviously when there is no sheetrock. I was thinking something you can adjust from outside of the wall to guide the cabling. Would be an interesting project but definitely not cost effective ^_^
Yea i love pipe drops. we have some here for the 2 story drops. the top of the pipe is above the wall plate in the drop ceiling

Welp... hops didn't do well this year for a lot of local growers. We had an infestation of Japanese Beetles that ate the tops right off the plants. Hops are too bitter for most animals and insects... but these beetles didn't really care. That combined with the late training meant our harvest this year is much worse then then last years. Thankfully we didn't have any downy mildew like one of the other local growers.
So the next farm project, and not sure how far we're going to get, is marking and tapping the hundreds of sugar maples that are on the farm.

@coliver That's freaking crazy man I didn't think anything would eat those!

There are few insects that will. The biggest issue, and the one we protected against, is downy mildew. We didn't expect such a big infestation of beetles this year, we had none last year.

Choosing to play a Paladin makes me think how insane you are.

That you're going to wait a few weeks to make your character makes me think how insane you are.

I think I'm going to roll a bard the next time I play. I doubt that will happen any time soon since I DM for my "regular" group.
