I was wondering if I could run an ethernet cable from my router inside to my shed and connect it to another router so I can have ethernet and wifi in my shed.

    I’ve seen normal Ethernet cables last 10+ years outside without issue.

    Northern New England here, have had a UTP Cat 6 cable running from my house to the shed for about 5 years, I didn’t even bury it. Not suggesting its the right way to do it, but it works fine. I do network installs all day, last thing I feel like doing at home is work :p
