Hello,

I need to get network access into my garage which is about 40m from the
house. I've tried wireless but the signal is terrible in the garage and
typically only 2mb/s at best.
So CAT 5 it is. Does anyone know of an outdoor grade cable, or should I
use
"normal" cable sheathed in garden hose or something?
Any other soultions people have used with success?

Many thanks,

Alan.

I'm told that these people do external grade PE-sheathed CAT6 cable:-

In fact here's the page. It's Cat 5e actually...

Thanks, I've requested a price from them.

Alan.


£47.57 + VAT for a 305m (1000') roll. Not too bad then.
Black outer sheath is better for SWMBO friendlyness also!
