Gret for you but did they use cat 5 or 5e wiring. Today you might need cat 8 (6 and 7 seems to have been obsoleted - - - dunno). I would have dragged in conduit then you would be very future proof -
Anything installed now still tends to be 5E or 6. 5E is good enough for 10GbaseT up to 30m, so perfectly fine in a house. 6 increases it to 55m and 6A to 100m. I am perfectly happy with 5E or 6 in the walls. I am still trying to get 10G equipment figured out so I can start using that. -- Len Sorensen
