Fair enough, my point was just that we are probably now on the cusp on the point
where wireless connections are reliable enough.

Yes the wireless may well and will be by itself, but the problem is the
amount of interference from other users around these days!...



As to your other points, bend radius in cat 5e did matter, in so much as a kink
in the cable would reduce it from gigabit to 100 Mb/s.

I too have messed up faceplates. Deeper back boxes helped, but most of the time
I now just let the wires come out of the wall and use a solid cable RJ45.

But I'm just a novice so listen to the experts.
