I wired my home network once, and these are the 5 mistakes I wouldn't repeat
When we built our ranch in northern Indiana, I wired the basement myself and ran Cat6 to every drop I could reach. I even crimped my own cables off a 1,000-foot spool to skip the cost of pre-made runs. The network works. Every port hits gigabit, the access points cover the whole house, and I’d take on the project again tomorrow. But wiring a house teaches you things you only learn once you live with the result. A few choices from that week still nag at me, and a couple of them cost real time to fix after the drywall closed. These are the five I’d handle differently starting over.
