  Hello All,

  For the computers that are physically close to the router, I run cat 5 
  inside the braid of old RG8 that I stripped.  These are no longer than 6 
  feet.  I have a pigtail at each end that I tie to each computer 
  chassis.  I tie the pigtails together at the router.  For computers that 
  are not physically close, I use wireless G.  I also use reclaimed braid 
  from old coax to shield the cat 5 jumpers from the cable modem and 
  to/from the phone modem.  No problems at all.
