here is the floor plan:

I actually have my modem in a room in a bedroom with the xbox in the living room. I used that 100ft of cat5 and was able to run it along side the wall and put it underneath the carpet where it meets the wall. almost cant tell its there

ooo lots of doors in the way rofl

I would have to see if I can pull the carpet up.

thanks jewel. so yeah, in that floorplan, the master bedroom that the internet connection is, is the room on the far left. and the tv is against the fireplace wall, close to the patio wall. and the internet connection for the living room is on the wall sharing the second bedroom.

could always go through the ceiling...had to have my dad's setup that way along with his speaker system. But that wasnt hard since he had an attic. No idea if you guys have a basement or an attic. or maybe both

[PoorMansCamaro]

we don't have either. we are on the second floor of a 2 story apartment.

Just when you get home go to speedtest.net on a device that is hard wired and one that is wireless to see what your working with

Highlighted for better understanding

if it is high enough you may not have too much to worry about

I think the area marked in red is doable for a wired connection IF you wanna go that route. Otherwise it would be be the repeater

The problem with the red is that the tv would block the hallway.

From the master bedroom to that Living room tv there is too many doors and open areas to make it completely invisible. Only thing i can think of is MAYBE going around the doorframe

i'll just buy a bunch of these

My apolologies, what i meant is have the modem start there. Could maybe put a shelf on the wall to make it more appealing?
