Ethernet Is Worth It For Video Calls

I have a family history of PC gaming, and we have done the " roll of cable, jacks, and crimper" method in every house I have lived in. If you want to avoid holes, you can run the cables on the floor along wall, and they will fit under most doors without impeding opening. another option is to put all your holes in the floors or ceilings of closets.

There is an iphone app that tracks shots with compiter vision and gives you all these numbers.
