Building A (Serious) Home Network From Scratch

Posted by timothy on from the bolts-in-the-floor dept.

Casey Lang-Vie writes "THG are running an article that outlines how to build a home network from scratch. I wish I'd read this before I attempted - now I have a few (ok, 8) unsightly holes in my wall." This is the type of network that encourages home ownership rather than rental.

    I was disappointed to see this "serious" article that essentially revolves around picking up the phone and paying money to have someone else do the work.
    I woudn't even let a contractor manage my framing, much less my wiring. This is a good article for someone setting up a Mac network who doesn't want to get their pants dirty. Oh, but then they'd be using WeeFee instead, wouldn't they? It would be good to add some quality adiophile site banners as well.
