uh, well its gotta go from my router right next to the stairs, all the way up them and into my room. no idea how long i’d need so i said 100 feet which may be way too much. idk.

FWIW - when I got this cable (it’s Cat5, BTW) I did just that - ran up the stairs and into another room of a townhouse. This was pre-wifi, though, and the cable’s now sitting next to a spare computer. I was debating on wiring the upstairs of my current house, but with the current g/g-plus setup, that’s not been necessary.
