You disconnect the phone cable from the socket, attach a 50m Ethernet cable to it and pull the phone cable from the other side of your house.

I just got the fiber installed, took less than 10 minutes, excluding the replacement of phone port to Ethernet port.



Doesn't work if the cable is stapled in somewhere or under layers of paint


I’ve never seen Ethernet cable being stapled, ever. Or any other cable for that matter.

Your always put it in a sheath and fix the sheath with whatever you want but the cable is free.

Putting the cable naked inside the wall is barbarian.


Ummm you've never seen NM / Romex staples or low voltage wire staples? Really? Seriously?

This? You've never seen this? https://www.homedepot.com/p/Briscon-1-in-x-1-2-in-Zinc-Plate...
