I have a few questions regarding wiring a home network.
First the main building where the modem will be located, I'd like to go wireless. Then there's a detatched garage which I'll need a few hardlines in. It is located aprox. 100ft away. First question is which wire to use. I've surfed around and found basic data on Cat 5, Cat 5e, and Cat 6. which would be the best for running from the house to the garage? to get to the area needed it'll need to go aprox 200ft, 100 down and 100 through the walls. Which leeds to my next question: do I run 2 cables down and through to where they need to be or run one to a switch box? If so what is the best wireless G router, cause I bought one for another house and had problem after problem with it, plus if I'm going to need a switch box, what ar ethe good ones?
Thank you in advance for your help.
