I need some ethernet cables between my computer room and the TV room.
The easiest way is to run the cable in the crawlspace and then up

Bob: I'm sure you have a specific reason for hardwire. I'm really just
curious what you're getting over wireless that makes it worth it.



Wired is still /way/ faster than wireless.

Are there also really security issues [maybe with *some* network
software? ] My wife's job supplies her with a laptop. The
hardwired net connection is the only way she can link to the work
computers from home.

Are they just saving on having a wireless modem-- or is there really a
security concern?
