*Excluding running ethernet cables to every room through the attic, down the walls to wall jacks. Also the cost of the jacks, and the various switches needed for several rooms. And the contractor to do it all.

But hey for like $600 I have cat6a in basically every room so

And the contractor to do it all.

Why wouldn’t you do it yourself?

Like, in an old house its a massive pain in the ass to run that, but still firmly in DIY territory.

Not everyone is comfortable drilling walls and installing plates, stripping wires, etc. and CAT cables aren't like simple copper electrical wires.

And not everyone wants to have cables running along their floorboard and up their stairs
