Comment on What's the best way to run a temporary eth cable?

If you have carpet you can get a flat Ethernet cable and tuck it around the border. That’s how I have mine set up because my ONT is in the closet.

Flat cables are a lifesaver

But also unshielded so uncoil them entirely and do not lay them next to other data lines. I had so many dropped packages because of that.

Ohhh so my bundle at the start and middle of the line probably isn’t good? If my internet has any issues in the future ill go and sort that 🙃

Yeah that made a massive dufference for me. Then again, it was unshielded cable so what did I expect?
