Your house can have Ethernet everywhere, and here's how I did it without drilling a single hole

Running Ethernet throughout a home or apartment without drilling holes is achievable using flat Cat6 cables, which can be routed along baseboards, under rugs, and through passthrough wall plates. Flat Cat6 is inexpensive, available in pre-made lengths, and can be concealed with cable raceways or tape. However, flat cables are fragile and prone to damage from sharp bends or pinching, which can cause intermittent connectivity issues. For rooms not reachable via baseboards, passthrough keystone wall plates offer a cleaner solution. The post also acknowledges that modern Wi-Fi (including Wi-Fi 7) is a viable alternative for many users, while wired connections remain the gold standard for latency-sensitive applications.
