God as a cable technician, I wish every customer knew this. Too many don’t and cry about there internet speeds not showing. Try explaining this to most I come across but most don’t even understand how to connect to there wifi 😂. Wi-Fi isn’t always the best in certain types of homes people just assume there services providers modems are a one sizes fits all. Damn sellsman!!
Great project, good video! Two recommendations to add polish to your new network: 1. At 5:27 that RJ45 crimp was not optimal. The cable jacket should extend all the way into the plug and under the “strain bar”. When the plug is crimped, the cable jacket should be crimped under the strain bar. 2. At 12:38 there are dangling cables near your switch. Best practice calls for Permanent Ethernet cable runs (called drops) to be terminated with a patch panel on one end and then terminated to a keystone jack on the remote end. Consider re-routing and terminating the cables near the switch into an inexpensive 12-port patch panel, leaving you expansion capacity to add cable runs later. Cable Matters makes an excellent 12-port patch panel, cost is less than $24. Good choice on the TrueCable cat 6 cable, BTW. Excellent quality cable.
These are great recommendations. I do believe that a patch panel isn't necessary if there's less than 8 lines. Just a wall plate or two with 4-6 keystone jacks should suffice. Or even a pass through wall plate with every cable end terminated with an rj45 keystone is good enough. But if he does end up running a lot more cables, then a patch panel, preferably keystone type, would be recommended
Here’s a tip….those twisted cables, that blue extra piece you used to untwist the pairs, use that same thing to insert into each curled wire, pinch and pull, straightens the curled wires…..could’ve saved you all that time you used to try and straighten them out individulally with your fingers….literally
you want that outer cable jacket also inside the crimp. Low voltage ethernet cables should be away from the higher AC supply lines so as to maximize the effective shielding & twists. In your video showing cables in stairwell I can see the ehternet cables touching what appears to be an AC supply line.
I read all the comments, and I did watch the video in its entirety. I wired my house completely for internet, I also did my sister's mobile home. I used cat 6 in my house and cat 5 in my sister's house. I did like some people are suggesting in these comments, I did use a keystone and a wall plate at each room. In fact none of my cabling has got an and crimped on to it like you did here. I would recommend replacing those ends with, even where the wireless access points are.
Something i did to my home to run my ethernet cables from attic to basement floor was running some non metallic smurf tubing thru the walls I did next to my return duct and also label ur cables to the locations so they can be together an neat, also by having that tube u have a way that if u wanted to add more cables in the future it's a simple drop down the pipe and ur good
i may not ever have a use for this but, i suddenly want to run ethernet cables through my house. fun little project. idk how u make everything entertaining.
i loath cable boots. makes it hard to depress the clip to remove the cable from a switch, etc. i use a mini flat head screw driver to separate the pairs of conductors. soo much faster. do NOT use pass-through rj45 ends on outdoor applications. also, when crimping an rj45, ensure the outer jacket (blue in this case) is inside of the rj45 connector.
Just what i was looking to do. Simple diy. Almost every video was some intricate hub. This is just a really long custom cable you can hide and run straight to your router or Ethernet switch if you need more ports than your router has. Tysm.
I bought a house that had an ethernet/phone junction box - it was cat3. I got so frustrated I tore it down. Now-a-days, I have the setup you're discussing. I went through upgrading to cat5, 6 and now I'm stringing cat 8 although I don't have those speeds yet (externally), but soon.
You know for all the good and bad pretty good presentation. Good on PPE. This job always a pita. I may try using coax since house has cable co-ax throughout. That I am not using as I Stream and use antennae for TV.
This is a nice video but I have a couple suggestions to improve your network. Always run at least two lines to each wall drop or a pull string if you anticipate adding more later. I know switches exist but you can't always rely on a single line to last forever. It's always better to have some redundancy, whether it's a room with multiple jacks or multiple lines behind each jack. I've had two of my single network lines in different rooms fail on me and that wasn't fun to deal with. Pull string helps allows you to run new wires to an existing location without removing the existing wires or fishing the new wire. It's very convenient and cheap insurance, especially when the drop has insulation. You kept saying how annoying and tedious it is to run networking, which I completely agree. So you definitely don't wanna go back to your attic, fish a new wire over and over again. Also, I prefer a keystone to keystone termination for both ends when using bulk cable. Keystones are way easier and faster to terminate. They allow lots of flexibility in positioning, especially in whatever network room your cables end up in
Yes, I did notice that he did not mention anything about using a 110 punch tool and a keystone. For running inside the wall that is absolutely the best practice.
The speed check at the end was SO satisfying! Thanks for this very detailed video. I might just do it! (and the Catholic Conversion therapy camp joke was hilarious!)
Do switches need a power source? Maybe there's no electrical outlet in the attic. My guess is it's easier access in the basement, and more temp controlled.
Great video! I also thought about doing something like this but I live in a small village with 500 people and our ISP can only provide us with 25 Mbps max. I think it would be unnecessary at that speed because I can also get the same results over Wifi.
Thank you internet stranger! It was done over the span of a few days on and off. We first did all the dry wall work, drilled holes and made the paths for the cables. Then all the wiring was done in one day
I am about to install several IP cameras outside our house, connected to an NVR-router-modem. Your willingness to undertake your project with no experience is very encouraging for many of us who likewise just want to give it a try. Thanks for taking the time to share your experience.
I would use the jacket you just pulled off and squeeze the individual cables between it once or swipe before trying to put them in their order. You will get a much straighter cable and don’t have to worry about them getting out of order when straightening them all at the same time.
@@crietonfightin899 I mean the convenience factor of not having to drill holes in your wall to run cable is the best part. Also I didn't buy moca adapters straight up. I bought old Verizon G1100 routers on Craigslist and Facebook marketplace for like $10 each and reprogrammed them into "bridge mode" so they're basically just moca adapters and wireless hotspots instead of routers. Saved a ton of money. Fairly easy to do too.
@@crietonfightin899More expensive, yes, but depends on the run and how complicated it is or if doing yourself. If paying someone, it might be worth it. Or try powerline adapters. I have had both good and bad luck with them. Just depends on your wiring.
...came to say this as well: The mechanical pressure point should be crimped on top of about ~1/8" in of the jacket, NOT on the wires themselves! This way any mechanical 'pulling' of the cable is done against the jacket and NOT the wires - any search on 'proper CAT6 jack termination' would show many examples...
The only thing I would have suggested is run more than 1 cable per room. I would have done 2 minimum. Who wants to have to grab a 5port switch to plug up their PC and TV? It looked like there was enough space and enough cable to run more than 4 total. That's just me though.
Since i didn't see mention of it in the comments (short and simple ones at least) i will mention it, you're supposed to push the jacket all the way into the connector before crimping it too, it's kinda like a strain relief for the copper wires at the pins.
@@funky7522 From my experience of wiring my entire house with CAT6 and making patch cable for CAT 5e, I would say that they worked pretty well. For the oxidization, it depends on the moisture content of the surrounding that they're currently working in. At the end of the day, all connectors at least "passed" the standard of RJ45 and CAT standard; just use a high quality RJ45 wall jacks with good cables then you're good to go.
Lol. We exclusively use pass through connectors and have for 15+ years in a school district. They’re fine and easier to make a good crimp for most people. Don’t plug them in before crimping, and no short. That being said, I have crimped with them plugged in with no issues. I just wouldn’t recommend it.
@@farmeunitIn my school district we got rid of them specifically for the problems just mentioned especially when we put things into the hands of contractors.
This is a great idea! I'm trying to get my stepson into computers since he loves video games (right now he just wants it to work he doesn't care how). I never had a chance to learn growing up so maybe I'll get him to help me. Question, the access points are they WAP? I was confused since you were hard wiring everything, are these just to spread a wifi signal throughout the house? I just got a mesh network through my IP and I'm still learning. Maybe I can expand the mesh network while adding hardlines?
Yes, in having a WAP located at different points in the house, you are creating a mesh network. And if you have your waps connect to hardline, it will be stronger.
If your running cables in walls you should terminate them to keystones on your walls and to a patch panel by your switch and either make or buy a fairly in expensive set of patch cables for everything
did you have to use a wifi router for this project? can you hardwire the entire house and just use the modem ? i,m wanting to hardwire without the wifi router because my modem is in my living room which means my wifi router is just next to me.
Why is the WiFi connection has very slow connection than the wired one? Is it because the WiFi is blocked with so many walls? That’s a 2782% improvement
i wonder if CAT 7 would have been better to use when you think about that it can do 10 Gbps to not only give full 1Gbps but to have 10 Gbps if need like one day if some ISPs would strat selling 10 Gbps in like 5 or 10 yeasr from now
When doing speed tests, we got the correct speeds that we payed for from our ISP. We didn't look for any special active cables, just the cable shown in the video
Gosh I wish I could run ethernet cables through my house walls but sadly its impossible since where I live, buildings are made of pure blocks covered in a concrete layer. I call it imposibble cause even though it can be done, it really more complicated and it would cost even more
@@JJFlores197 They're cheap...enterprise level devices that are old and it uses 1gig or 10 gig port. It's dirt cheap for small switches and media converters.
@@JJFlores197 it doesn't have to be a consumer level device. You can buy enterprise old tech that are cheap. You buy the switch and run the proper fiber cable. You can get 10g upload and download within your network.
Why do you say that? You most certainly can put an RJ45 on a riser cable. Riser cables are one of the most common cables used for wall runs. The method of termination also has no effect on the final outcome- Atleast not one that will ever be noticeable in a residential install. What you are describing is a corporate standard blueprint for network installs. This guy does not have a corporate IDF setup with patch panels and switches.
The cables are basically identical. Riser just has a toxic jacket if burned. Plenum is for certain applications. Still functionally identical to patch cables and can be custom lengths…
Cable boots are the worst, I don't know why they're even around still I don't recommend them at all. Over the years those tabs harden almost like a rock making it extremely hard to press with your thumbs to release cables from a switch or wall outlet. In some cases I've had to use a blade to cut them in order to get to the tab to release the cable.

Keep up the great work :)
Why is the WiFi connection has very slow connection than the wired one? Is it because the WiFi is blocked with so many walls? That’s a 2782% improvement
Currently achievable: Fiber (qsfp-dd) 400G. Cat6/7 10G. Wifi is an order of magnitude slower.

Unofficially Cat5e can run 10G at about 50-60ft without error. That covers lots of runs in a small house.
This is why new houses pre add ethernet cables before walls since it's 1000% easier.
Fun fact a lot of new home builders still don't.
