i wonder if a decent powerline system would be a better idea? i got some, but they are not that good, which is why I went to a Ethernet connection
In my experience powerline stuff is ok at best. It our previous house it was pretty terrible, rarely managing more than 12mb/s even with devices advertising 1000mb/s.
It was a bit better in our current house, managed to get 40mb/s between my office and the part of the house where my router was. Which was ok when my Internet connection was under 30 anyway.
But that had to change when I moved to Starlink and I ran Ethernet round the outside of the house.
Even when then powerline units weren't the most reliable. I had a series of the Devolo ones and then some TP-Link ones. Many of them only lasted 2-3 years (they can get very hot) and some of them needed a power cycle every few months as they just stopped passing traffic.
That said, I do still have two of the in place connecting a camera in a shed and those have been rock solid if slow (think they are managing 20mb/s). I'd forgotten they were still in use.
