With the eventual move out of the BTC and a move next month
into a new house (fingers crossed) I’ve been looking into ways to improve
connectivity at home. Having a work laptop in the rear of the house and the
Wifi router at the front of the house makes for a lot of signal interference.
Connect to VPN and it’s kind of pointless. At the BTC we’ve been talking about
the latest and greatest WIFI routers and range extenders but nothing beats a
hard wire connection for dependability and overall throughput.
I found an article that addresses this in a relatively
inexpensive way that I thought others might find helpful. The basic premise is
use your house’s electrical wiring as network wiring. You plug one of the
gadgets into the wall near your router and run an Ethernet cable to it. Plug
another one into the wall near your laptop and run an Ethernet cable to that.
No signal interference, no new wiring and you can add as many as you need.
