    Yeah, when we bought our home and the ISP guy was setting up the fiber line, he asked if I worked from home. I said yes and that I used one of the bedrooms as an office. He asked if I wanted to have the hole from the outside drilled into the room since some people who WFH had requirements to be on a wired connection. I personally didn’t have that requirement, and I also wanted my router as close to the modem as possible while being in the middle of the house. So it ended up being in the living room. It would’ve been convenient if there were built-in ports in all the rooms, even though wifi is fine for my home office.

        It’s not, and I never said it was hard. I just said it would’ve been convenient to have the cabling already in the walls, so I don’t have to bother running it along the wall and/or hiding it to keep it neat.
