Idk who needs to hear this (definitely not me lol) but networking in a 110 year old house is not fun nor easy.

The house I just moved into has very thick floors so wifi in the basement sucks AND has brick walls. Fortunately TV cable was run into just about every room from the outside, the holes are just big enough for the cable, not the connector. So I just spent the last hour removing the RG-6 cable and the connector that broke off in the wall only to realize the hole is still too small for an RJ45 connector
It's actually super easy to crimp your own connectors if you have the right tools!
I wouldn't let that stop you from running cabling, if width is the only concern.
