Better make WiFi routers hubs between every 20ft and interconnect them as mesh network this way your setup will be many times more robust, speaking from experience, on the job we have internet cables drawn inside walls so they aren't accessible and some cables can lose some signal strength after a few years of usage, these hubs are mainly for strengthening signal at key points, but also if at some point signal is lost then WiFi bridges can act as temporary solution until you find where is that cable in chain of cables and replace it
Sir this is the shitpost community not the shittysysadmin community.
On anothernote: take my upvote :D
Thanks)
Or just, get good cables.
OP is likely running it through hallways.
Roughly how many years are you thinking about? I've been using the same 10m ethernet cable for more than 20 years. And my expectation was that only physical wear would damage it (eg. rolling and unrolling it to deploy in a different place; possibly closing a door on it accidentally... that kind of thing).
Same, but cable detoriated despite being untouched inside walls
Either your cables are made with the absolute worst insulation I have ever heard of, or your environment is doing something to the cable. I have done networking in 200 year old building with CAT3 from the 1990s that still works today. I installed a CAT6 cable in my parents house in 2003 that still works.
If I ever had a cable in a wall just go bad I would put that cable vendor on the blacklist immediately. Is it possible that the cables are being damaged during installation?
I agree that wifi is a great fallback option, but what happens when the cable running to the AP deteriorates?
Whole mesh network then, WiFi 6 offers good speed now anyways and it's not so expensive, only downside is that devices that are not WiFi routers are mostly WiFi 4 or 5 Edit: i agree tho that it would be worth it to invest in good cables, but problem is, I'm working at that company for one year and architecting and building that network was done 15 years ago, i was highschooler then
This will have literally a hundred times the latency and terrible jitter.
Still better than open half a building of walls
