I.m going to put in some ethernet runs about the house to take advantage of the new UFB install happening next week!I am getting my electrician to quote on it- and the price is probably reasonable- $225 for 100m of CAT6 ??anyway- as the longest run (20m) is to the TV, it did make we wonder if I may as well just do one run of CAT6, and then should I want to network the bluray and tv and magic box etc etc, I could just pop an unmanaged network switch on the end by the tv? would there be lag or speed problems because of this.i.e. cable from router/patch panel under the house to ethernet outlet. cable from outlet to TV. and then if required using a switch to add other devices with the TV- but putting the switch between the single outlet and the devices??? this would mean 20 m vs 80 m (I think 4 is plenty)cheers Theo
