This thread is NOT to talk about which Internet service is the cheapeast. I believe that discussion has been heavily discussed.

I put RG45s on all my wires and added an ethernet switch in the low volt box. Word of caution though more than half of the wall connectors wired by the builder's contractor were wired wrong or not punched down at all. Make sure you have an end-to-end tester. We use DirecTV boxes all hard wired even to the Lanai.
