[useless anecdote]

When I was in college--i.e., in the days before reasonable and inexpensive wireless--my roommates and I just ran direct cable like UT is talking about all throughout the house, into five separate bedrooms.

Except it wasn't our house, we were renters. So we didn't do it inside the walls with fancy jacks or nothin', we just got a hundred foot spool and ran it down all the halls and through the doorways.

Oh, and we were too cheap to get actual bits of plastic to secure the cable to the walls. We used scotch tape.

It was awesome.
