Looks like I'll have to find another way. It wouldn't be so bad to mount a box on the wall and punch the cable through into the closet, then just a small hole in the floor to get downstairs. I just have to convince the wife I can do it without making a mess. The walls are plaster and lathe, which makes it a little trickier.
Failing that, I guess I can always get a WAP and set it up as a wireless bridge. I'm using my laptop the same way right now.
EDIT: Your mention of insulation got me thinking... would something like this protect the cable well enough? |
Tell your wife that doing it "right" requires you to pull it through the wall. With the right tools it won't be that big of a mess to go through plaster; and it just looks better than wires coming up out of the floor. I have remodeled two houses both of them with plaster walls. It's not that difficult.
