We have tried to include most of the other things mentioned in this thread so we hope we have it all covered! I bet I forget something though.

My reasons are because you can use Cat 5e cable to route your telephone. (How to has been covered in another thread.) Because wired network is more stable than wireless. I've had drivers for the wireless network cause the operating system to become unstable - reverting back to a wired network fixed the problem. Because if all your sons and you are trying to stream video at the one time even a 105 mb/s wireless will not cope as all the traffic has to fit in this bandwidth. Using gigabit per second switches will future proof you for lots of children! Because children will have LAN parties and bring their friends over complete with multiple computers to play multiplayer games. Trust me, they're not going to be happy chappies unless they can have the lower latency of a wired network. Because you can supply power along a Cat 5E network, thus providing power for your security cameras. If you use wireless for these, you will still have to find a way to provide them with power. It's just easier to send power down the Cat 5E cable. Because I run two printers and three scanners. It would cost me too much to provide each with a wireless server. And these are just what I can think of as I'm typing. You’re on the right track, wire brush in a grinder then a zinc rich epoxy primer then a top coat of some sort, like a waterproofing membrane.
