CAT 6 Ethernet cable with terminating sockets installation between two adjacent rooms
Posted 06 April
Our job was a CAT 6 eth cable install between mine & mum's room connecting 2 openwrt APs, as upgrade from powerline adapters capping out @ 100mbit. Tom did very neat job, plus few extras, mounting my router next to the ONT, giving me a short cable to connect them, & neatly pinning the connecting eth cable from my mum's router to the eth socket mounted high out of my sibling's reach.. plus offered to mount mum's AP like mine if we had wanted that, despite it being a second call out at no cost repositioning the socket from by her door, where proved to not be a good place. Thanks Tom & Carla!
