There are at least two parts to what you're asking about: knowing how to hook stuff up, and getting the wires from here to there.

There is plenty of info available about networking and cabling, but no book can teach one how to run wiring like experience can.

That's why licensed specialty trades (electrical, plumbing,HVAC, etc.) require both schooling and on-the-job experience.

I wasn't trying to be a wise(beep) when I answered the way I did, just direct and to the point. I can teach one more in a week than you can learn from a book in a year.

Because I've been into electronics since I was 5, I've known electrical theory as well as any master I've worked under, but I had to learn the nuts'n'bolt the hard way.
