I’m looking to install cat6 or cat6a cable into the wall how many cables will I need from the modern to my bedroom 

 

How big is your house?

 

How far apart are the modem and your computer?

 

How many things are you planning on plugging in?

 

Single story? Multi-story?

 

Single-family house? Apartment?

 

Rent? Own?

 

All these factors change your answer.

I sold my soul for ProSupport.

Let me just pull up the floor plans and spy cameras for your house here and take a look...

 

 

 

Corps aren't your friends. "Bottleneck calculators" are BS. Only suckers buy based on brand. It's your PC, do what makes you happy.  If your build meets your needs, you don't need anyone else to "rate" it for you. And talking about being part of a "master race" is cringe. Watch this space for further truths people need to hear.
