I know price can vary quite a bit, but im trying to get a general idea. I want a few ethernet lines run throughout a split level house. The WAN comes into the master bedroom on the upper floor and I want 1 line to the living room in the center of the house on the main floor. I also want 1 line to the basement which is right below the master bedroom. Does anyone know what I can expect the rough cost to be? TIA

If you do it yourself, the cost of materials and tools. Which would be about $150-$250. It is easy to do and learn and due to being low voltage there is very little risk. Just make everything as neat as possible.

If you hire a person, it is base $150 per run. But they usually have a minimum requirement.
