I know price can vary quite a bit, but im trying to get a general idea. I want a few ethernet lines run throughout a split level house. The WAN comes into the master bedroom on the upper floor and I want 1 line to the living room in the center of the house on the main floor. I also want 1 line to the basement which is right below the master bedroom. Does anyone know what I can expect the rough cost to be? TIA

Is there any possibility of doing the work yourself? You’ll save a ton of money, in exchange for some sweat and possible headaches. I just ran 24 lines throughout my house, all terminating to my utility room. Granted, I have a drop ceiling in the basement, which made things infinitely easier.

What’s your ceiling situation like in your basement? Easy access? How are you with patching/painting walls?

If you want to avoid patching walls, you can drop the cable in the ceiling of a closet.
