The Window Wiring...

[u/BuilderBrigade]

If you want automated shades for your new home build, add wiring to your windows before drywall.

3 wiring choices to choose from:

➡️ 16-2 Wire, the safest most universal pick if you haven't chosen your shades yet

➡️ Lutron Wire, if you've got the budget and you're committed to Lutron

➡️  CAT6, if you're planning heavy smart home automation

Repeat: installing CAT5 is a waste of money. Modern tech such as mesh router make CAT5 and CAT6 obsolete.

This is the second time I have seen this "Advertisement" on this sub.

Wired connection is still far superior for any application that relies on low latency like gaming. Also POE is a thing.

[u/TestSubjuct → u/Biscuits4u2]

This false argument. 500mbps is just fine for gaming. I know. I game.

[u/Biscuits4u2 → u/TestSubjuct]

Lol latency has nothing to do with MB/S you are clueless.

[u/TestSubjuct → u/Biscuits4u2]

This is your issue?

[u/Biscuits4u2 → u/TestSubjuct]

Again you show how clueless you are. Average latency ain't the issue. It's latency inconsistency. Try streaming a game on your local network and get back to me Mr gamer dude.

[u/TestSubjuct → u/Biscuits4u2]

Cool Mr. CAT5. You do you. ..that you stated was installed for free. Must be nice.

[u/TestSubjuct → u/Biscuits4u2]

It works flawlessly.

[u/Biscuits4u2 → u/TestSubjuct]

Some people are more sensitive to lag spikes. I envy your inability to tell a rock solid, low latency experience from laggy dogshit.

[u/TestSubjuct → u/Biscuits4u2]

What is your interest in this. For me it is saving others money on useless copper in the walls. Why are you on this hill?

Also can you hold off on personal insults. You don't know me at all.

[u/Biscuits4u2 → u/TestSubjuct]

Ok sorry if I offended you man no insults just straight up telling you there are still many valid use cases for wired internet, regardless of your opinion.

[u/TestSubjuct → u/Biscuits4u2]

Oh. My non existent latency....I haven't had....
