if you will be using wifi, buy those with Ethernet ports and NOT PCI based. in that way no more drivers needed "OS INDEPENDENT"
a simple tip from me: DONT USE PVC PIPES for shielding utp. instead use "Black pipes" the same thing used for water pipes by water districts. this comes in 90meters/role and no need to use joints like pvc does. and these "black pipes" are water proof,leak proof, termites proof or whatever proofs pa. kasi nga its been used for water distribution. mura na siya madali pang ikabit compared sa blue pvc pipes. by the way: Meron bang taga NTC dito? just wondering....
