    Changed the batteries in a few door sensors for my Vivint alarm system. Going to change all of them tonight as its been 5 years since install and I'm getting low battery warnings the past few days in this cold.

    Well imagine if instead of writing that letter to the editor, she just posts on a car forum for car enthusiasts. That's Kritafo.

    Got the priorities taken care of in the new place...

    Half assed AV Setup / Networking for now until I figure out what to do. But this is the first time I have had my TV setup within THX recommended viewing distance (happy coincidence) which looks awesome.

    Changed a telephone RJ12 jack to an RJ45 jack so I have a network port in my living room where my wife wants to put our desktop. So handy that my house was wired with all Cat5e cabling. Kind of annoying that most rooms have just the "old fashioned" telephone jacks. I suspect the guy who built this house was an old dude, and he dreamed of telephones in every room. Funny, I have zero wired telephones anywhere, and I dream of networked computing devices in every room.

    At least it wasn’t wired with Cat5 like mine. Wifi is faster but my Cat5 is a lot more steady.

    Honestly until around 6-8 years ago I would say that telephone jacks would be near universally more valuable to a homeowner than Ethernet.

    I’m mad jelly, my place doesn’t even have a single phone line wired anywhere let alone Cat5, and essentially no Coax either it’s kindof messed up.

    I might have to get a bit more aggressive and run a conduit to my attic and pull some cables through so I can have more reliable wifi.

    My advice is that if you are running new cable, run 2x Cat6 to every location. Can be handy to have two wired connections.

    Or just move to a better house. Sounds like you bought a shit heap.

    This is intertesting, I have a bunch of cat 5e in the walls but none of them are terminated, just just sit behind this blank plate (as well as a unterminated coax) in my wall. Should think about terminating them and getting a wired network setup.

    I have the tool and ends if you want. Or just buy the "punch-down" type from the hardware store. I think you don't need a special crimper for those.
