[quote=Anonymous]DP. I am an EE and my older house has Cat-5 wiring in selected locations of the basement, ground, and 2nd floors. Streaming TV and printers really work much better with wired Ethernet. We tie things together with a $50 Netgear 8-port Gigabit Ethernet switch in the basement (some service provider devices include several Ethernet ports, so that might not be needed for everyone). We used the Cat-5 wiring to move the WiFi up and out of the basement, which improved wireless coverage tremendously. We only use wireless for portable things like iPads. [/quote]
