[quote=Anonymous]At a minimum you should run ethernet cable and ideally fiber optic cable in every room. Fiber optic cable supports faster speeds while ethernet cable supports power and data. You should also have someone do an audit and make sure there are no WiFi dead spots If you are going to go with a whole home automation system, I suggest staying away from Alexa and Ring and any other device that requires the uploading your data to the cloud. There are alternatives that are just as easy to use that keep your data under your control (e.g., Zoneminder for cameras, Mycroft for voice assistant). [/quote]
