internal Or external

[Empire24453]

Hello,

 

I got 15m Cat7 cable from the box downstairs to the router upstairs. The cable is only setup temp and not even long enough  
 

Should I keep it internal as it is now or do it externally on the outside wall to the back? The easy option is outside then inside as holes are already there but then it's speed

If you get proper outdoor cable and it wont cause issues with moisture and such you could do outside

It just makes the cable longer from doing it outside then again inside is more interference with other things going on. 

Get a long 40m cat8 for outside Xd

can you live with the cable inside thats the question... plenty people have cables inside just "looks" ugly

lots of cables are also run outside like well your ether net or cable. i have ethernet out side and its probably old stuff works just fine... but temps prably dont drop below say -5 to -10c so

I can, even that it's black - others in the household.. Hmmmmmmmmmmmm

 

going to go along the walls from the front room to the back then go up into the floor into the room upstairs

there ways of making it look tidy on the inside like under the floor molding up door moldings thow wals with jacks and so on just has to be done right.

 

ya we no who gets the final say...
