I think I may have miscommunicated what I was asking. Really all I am
worried about at this point is whether it is legal to put PVC or
similar piping in the walls and run the cables through that. The gear
itself would be housed in the main house, most likely in a closet (or
I might just put a cabinet in my room by the phone jack and power
outlet to avoid the hassle of getting power and phone for DSL into the
top of a closet).


You can use rigid grey PVC or the blue flex stuff (type ENT) both are
legal exposed or concealed in a home. They also sell an orange ENT but
it is a ripoff. It is an inferor product for the same (or more) money.
There is no code that requires orange low voltage raceways


That tells me what I needed to know. I may very well get started on
this Monday when dad is home to help, and I figured that Lowe's will
probably be open when the local building inspector's office won't be.
