I'm running my house with Cat6, I can supply the cable, wall plates, jacks, and do the terminating at the end points.
It's a two story house with an attic and i'm going to run drops to the various rooms, about 5-6.
I've thought about running it myself, but I know the walls have fireblocks and the attic is a really miserable place to be. Walls on the second story don't line up well with the home base so i'm worried about routing the wire without screwing it up and making a ton of holes in my walls.
Does this kind of work get done on an hourly rate or a per drop rate? And would you recommend one drop per room or more? It seems like each drop is going to be at least an hour or more for a couple of guys.
