You can lay your own cables, either to the next wall socket or directly to a switch. Flat ethernet cables can be very helpful for hiding and for crossing doorways. Generous "unnecessary" wire length helps with keeping them out of sight.


Just want to second your suggestion about flat cables. They are great for situations as this.

I’m in an old stone house and currently have flat cables snaked around until I can piggy back on the workers putting in conduit for other things.
