Okay so I'm looking for the best way to get ethernet upstairs to what would be my "office"

The floorplan is as follows:

The fibre wire (virgin media) comes into the house at the bottom left of the lounge next to the window were the red dot is. I was going to just use a powerline system but I want to be able to use Nvidia Gamestreaming downstairs on the TV (computer in office) and I've read about issues with it. I need an ethernet wire to get into Bedroom Two in some way.

I could just go along the lounge to the right and up the right hand top wall and put the cable up the wall, not sure if this would get the cable into the Bedroom of the corner of the bathroom though. The attic has a boarded floor but not sure thats helpful at all haha

Any ideas at all?

I would suggest that running the cable round the outside of the house and back in upstairs would be the easiest way. Means you don't have to deal with trying to feed cable through cavities etc.
Hmmmm never thought of going outside
This is the side of the house showing the current wiring into the living room on the left. Wonder how to get past the electric/gas box though.
