wi-fi is also nice, and most likely will use it soon, in conjunction with the wired connection. i just want to have the data cabling implemented properly, since mag-re-renovate naman.

are there individual contractors specializing in implementing structured wiring? kung hindi man kayanin ng contractor ko?
A typical home electrician should be able to install the CAT5 cabling in your home. That's what we had done at our office and my home some years ago. You can buy the RJ45 wall sockets at any hardware store these days.

Any modern day electricial worth his salt should be able to properly terminate the CAT5 cables at each of the RJ45 sockets. If not, ask a computer technician to do the actual cable terminations for you.

The advantage of a wired connection is the speed and security. A WiFi setup is inherenty insecure because it is still possible for people to peek into the data streaming in and out of your wireless link, even if you have implemented some wifi security protocols.
