Hi All,
I'm just running some new CAT-5 cable through my house and have a bit of a problem. My old cable ran next to the mains cabling under the floor boards and has never run what I expect of full 100mbps performance - could the reason be because it runs alongside the mains cable and is getting interference or something from it? I'm running some new cable for my brother's bedroom now and it has to follow the same path... do you think that it matters that I'm running alongside a few main cables or should I move it all?
Or can I shield it in any way?
------------------
Cheers,
Steve
