[quote=Anonymous]I recently hired someone to run Ethernet to every bedroom in my house.  This allows us to use a hardwired connection in bedrooms to TV's, video game systems, and PC's.  It also allows us to have a WiFi extender in one room.  The wireless router is in one corner of the basement and the WiFi extender is plugged into the wall Ethernet in the top floor opposite of the basement router.  We now have great wireless everywhere as well as the ability to use wired Internet.  Expect to spend between 100-200 per Ethernet drop.  You can have them run coax at the same time.

If you don't want to run Ethernet and you have a cable jack in the basement and in one of the rooms upstairs, you can create a MoCA network.  Basically, your router would have an ethernet port out to a MoCA adapter.  The MoCA adapter goes into the coax in the basement.  Then you have a MoCA WiFi extender on the far end of your home.  This allows you to avoid any new wiring (so long as you have coaxial already) and gives you quite good WiFi speeds because MoCA 2.0 can do Gigabit.  You need a POE (Point of Entry) filter where your cable comes into the house to prevent your MoCA data from leaving your home.  If you're using FiOS, no filter is needed and no initial MoCA adapter is needed either because the FiOS router supports it natively.
