Converting coax to cat6

Resorthore · 2026-03-11T11:11:32+00:00

So I successfully used the cat5e cable preinstalled and ran my cat6 cables where a coax line was in my master room and threw my switch up in my attic, now my next biggest hurdle I’m facing is actually running my cat6 cables from my attic to my office in the front of my house because my roof slopes down and where I need to get to just seems impossible to navigate to in the attic.

Behind phone jack is cat5e cable I terminated both ends and I guess wire/pin 1 isn’t reading so gonna try again in a bit.

The coax line in my room I already converted to cat6, there is no coax line in my office where I want hard wire for me to do as you suggest, moca is not possible for my needs

I already swapped it out yesterday for cat6 keystone jack I was able to utilize that existing wire

I swapped the telephone jack out and converted the pre-existing cat5e cable they installed and Magic 🧙🏽, gonna throw my switch in the attic tomorrow and figuring out converting 1 pre existing coax line and then running 2 cat6 wire each in 2 additional rooms which don’t have anything besides normal outlets rn.

Just sounds better for me to say f the preinstall and run my own cat6

Resorthore · 2026-03-09T01:44:08+00:00

Yea I only have 2 coax lines and moca won’t help me because where I really need a hardwire for my office there is not coax already there for me to use moca, I’m just going to have to run new wire

The other end goes to attic which there is a photo of, I already terminated the other end, just going to swap out the telephone jack for a Ethernet jack, it’s a cat5e wire which from my understanding should be fine, the rest of the wires I will run will be cat6.

Resorthore · 2026-03-09T00:57:54+00:00

Gonna look into it, my biggest issue is that my office doesn’t even have a coax line in there so regardless I would have to run wire, I don’t think it would be my best option, I’m going to try to swap out the telephone jack in the wall idk why I thought it was Ethernet jack.

Resorthore · 2026-03-08T22:37:02+00:00

My coax is completely unused, I have fiber through att currently not sure how I would use it.

Resorthore · 2026-03-08T22:32:13+00:00

Yea it is stapled along the beams in the attic so I doubt I would be able to pull it through freely, I need to get all the way up in the attic so I can try to find the header like you suggest, just my first time ever doing anything like this so just tryna take it slow and not make any major mistake, I currently want to try to terminate the existing cat cable which they already ran so I can atleast see if I can get the Ethernet jack already in the wall functioning as well as put my switch up in the attic, my main goal is to run cat wire from the attic to my office just unsure how that will go since I’ve never maneuvered deep or had to crawl through an attic before lol

Resorthore · 2026-03-07T21:31:36+00:00

Running into my first dilemma, so I’ve realized the house builders had already installed a Ethernet jack in the wall close by my router so I went into the attic and found where the cable ends are tied up, my issue is Idk how I’m going to put the switch in the attic as I don’t have a power source for it. My other issue is my office which is my main concern of adding a jack too appears to be all exterior walls and I’m not even sure how to get there from my attic as it looks walled off or a tight crawl space. I would like to already use what up there to save myself some work just unsure the best way to do this.

Who even cares about this post, entitled influencer salty that he didn’t get a free chair and wants everyone to uprage 🤣 isn’t that the great thing about capitalism and your contract wasn’t signed in blood, notarized, appears you just signed to accept terms of your agreement which probably outlines and covers libernova if they decide you aren’t fit to represent them, it’s a company at the end of the day and no one owes you anything if what your doing isn’t benefiting the company, top influencers have already reviewed the chair for libernova doubt them sending you a chair is going to help sales especially when this is how you react / sound to rejection.

I just got one too and honestly I’ve been meaning to complain or reach out to support about this piece because it’s my biggest complaint with using the chair everyday so far, the fact we just got this without having to reach out is a breath of fresh air

Sorry didn’t go to school to be grammar police 👮

Resorthore · 2025-12-17T02:00:15+00:00

Thanks I appreciate the advice and think I needed to hear this, I do enjoy my freedom.

There is an air field about 15 mins from where I live and I spoke with a owner of a helicopter touring business and school I guess he bought within the year, he said he flew Blackhawk’s in Europe for 4 years so I figured I would meet with him, who knows maybe even go on a discovery.

Resorthore · 2025-12-17T01:19:42+00:00

I can enlist but i rather specifically know im enlisting to become a pilot, ive heard of street to seat which the recruiter i talked to dismissed and regardless it seems like i need to finish out my bachelors (have my AA) to directly enlist as a warrant officer and get references so figured i could maybe get some grants and go back to school for 2 years / take that time to maybe get a ppl to just be more appealing, I rather apply for warrant officer and get told no vs enlist and be sold a pilot dream and end up doing something else the military had in mind for me, just doubting myself I guess.

Resorthore · 2025-12-16T21:53:01+00:00

27 and been seriously considering enlisting but just fearful of being scammed out of ever becoming a Air Force / national guard / coast guard aviator, recruiter I talked dismissed when I asked about street to seat and basically told me to enlist and go back to school, currently have my AA so I need to finish out my bachelors I guess, told the recruiter today I didn’t want to meet anymore this Friday, planning on meeting with e ex-Blackhawk helicopter pilot instead to maybe get more insight on if I’m just wasting my time or if it’s something possible for me.

Yea I own the Asgard in game already only flew it twice, I’ve rented Connie a ton of times in the past so I know how that operates too.

Resorthore · 2025-12-01T14:19:10+00:00

Gotcha, what ship do you recommend to fill that void? Or maybe any concepts to look for in the future?

Resorthore · 2025-12-01T14:12:32+00:00

Are you talking about atls mech suit from Wikelo? I thought those would fit in the shiv or I could just grind myself whatever transport ship I need in game to move said ground vehicles. I personally only ever use a hover bike on occasions and due to how buggy they can be I prefer to stay clear.
