Hello all.
First, I hope I'm asking this in the right section but if not, could someone please move this to the appropriate forum?
So I've been wireless gaming (PC) for a while now but I think it's time I buy an ethernet cable as I think it'll be much more efficient while gaming as there are times when my connection won't be so great.
Problem is, my room is at the end of my apartment while the living room is where my modem is. I was wondering if the best option is to duct tape every feet or so and make it run on the ceiling? I think this may be the best option for me as I do not want it on the floor and I don't want to be stapling an ethernet cable.. Sounds like too much work anyway lol. And I'm sure duct tape wouldn't have an effect on connection.
Has anyone tried this before? Would appreciate and hope for some positive feedback.
And also, this will be the first time I'm hooking my gaming PC directly to the modem. Are there settings I need to change? Or can I just get off WiFi and plug in the cable?
Thanks!
