Hey guy's i recently moved my PC from the living room to my own room, and with the move i had to relocate the router. So what i have done is i have moved the router from the living room to my room and extended an Ethernet all the way from the modem (which is in the living room) to the router in my room.

 

now the problem is that the Ethernet cable is extending halfway across the apartment and i need a more aesthetically pleasing solution  :D, i know i can put the main router in the living room and get a wireless AP to my room. but i don't want the connection to less reliable, my experience is that an Ethernet cable is much more stable..

 

Anyway, what do you guys think? will a wireless solution be stable?

I Listen. i Observe. I Learn. I make my own decision
