Help with how to get a wired connection?

Ordered a couple of them 30 metre cable wire things lads, but my cousins just said i need a wall adapter so gunna give the wires a shot n see how the internet is, i also bought a box which i believe sits between the two wires to make them go longer? Not sure lol will see how it goes not the end of the world isit
 
What is the distance? You can buy a 100m reel, then chop it to size and use an rj45 crimp tool to make any sized cable you want.

Since it's cable without ends on it, you can drill 6mm holes through walls etc to hide it.
 
Blimey you must have one massive house. I've recently wired from router to upstairs bedroom. Although we went through ceiling and floorboards, I ordered 20M cat6 still got plenty spare.

4x5m bedroom. 4x5 livingroom.

I aint got a clue mate, id say its over 100 M to my bedroom, maybe... ill have to measure it, should have measured it first to be honest, just got overly excited about getting a pc!
 
Lol.. So you are basically walking 1/10th of a kilometer just going to your bedroom? Do you even know meters?

Unless you're a millionaire and live in a mansion, I suggest you get back measuring. You ain't gonna be able to hide 80m of cable behind ha deak neatly
 
I still think 60m is crazy much... English houses tend to be narrow but tall... But if you live upstairs, just go through ceiling and floorboards.

Anyways

Good luck

Depending on your set up and what kind of solution you are looking for you could consider having the router re-sited somewhere centrally in the house,say the loft maybe, then adding a switch in there as well that can handle all the connections you want in the house or at least one per room etc, then running cables through ceilings to the upper rooms and outside down the walls to the lower rooms then in through walls or frames etc.

Seems like a more complicated idea at first look but once it's in you'll never look back.
