As neat as that would look, crimping RJ45 connectors is a *****.Cat5 Cable
2x RJ45 Socket
Cable Pinning solution (I use a staple gun to pin cable to skirting boards or hide under the carpet as oppose to cable clips or trunking)
IPC Insertion tool.
1) Run your cable to the new location following the path the cable will follow when hidden.
2) leave about a 50cm extra at both access point ends.
3) Attach socket to wall at both ends.
4) Strip outer insulation
5) Using insertion tool and any wiring diagram of the internet attach wires to socket.
6) Attach spare ethernet port on router to one socket
7) Attach device to be networked to other socket.
Essentially you are taking the port from the router and extending it just like you would to with an electrical extension reel.
It is a basic guide I am sure if you google it you will find a more detailed explanation but to me it is like wiring a plug so I haven't exactly gone into much detail with it.
In 2006 I wired a 3 storey building by myself after basically been given a crash course in the wiring diagram once you done it once it is pretty easy.
