You should avoid running the cables without any breaks. Using keystone wall plates connected to female ends helps maintain a strong Wi-Fi signal and prevents degradation.

It's better to keep moving if possible, though for Ethernet over 1Gbps at 50 meters it's not too long.

Keystone positioned on the wall close to the router within the property. Keystone located in the wall at the garage area near your preferred spot (if it resembles an aluminium shed with no internal structure, then wiring climbs up to a surface-mounted box attached to the wall). A direct cable path exists between these points. What type of construction does your home have? Floors? Walls? Think about how the cable will travel from inside to the outside. Through the flooring, straight out the wall, or up through the ceiling.

I thought the same thing. My goal was essentially the same for the office computers.

Working on the 1920s build with a basement. I’ll lay the Cat6 cables (two sets) using the same route our ISP took for their installation. I have 30 feet of underground PVC conduit ready to place the wires both underground and through the wall.

I installed several Cat 6 cables from a central plate in the linen closet of the bathroom where the internet arrives, running them down the wall and beneath the mobile home. I used a budget garden hose as a conduit for each cable, which was simpler and more affordable than buying dedicated conduits at that time. On the opposite side of the mobile home, I connected another Keystone plate to complete the setup. The total length from the router to the printer is roughly 50 feet, with the router to the computer about 45 feet—this distance should function properly if the plan holds. A potential issue could be moisture buildup inside the conduit; sealing the ends will help reduce that problem.
