How much does a low voltage electrical cost to run ethernet around a house? (alien.top)

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

Split levels are hard to run and hide cleanly(assuming you DON'T WANT exposed wires) , unless you have a drop ceiling in the basement
