Hi
I need to run a network cable to an upstairs bedroom, about 16 metres
in total. wireless won't work too well in this location for some
reason, rest of house ok.
The easiest route is running it next to the electric ring main cable,
would this effect the performance of the network connection?

Cheers

I have most of the rooms networked with the cables running alongside ( but of course physically separated as required by Elec regs) ringmains, lighting cicuits and a submain over many metres.
Have no problems at all.
As long as you use proper network cable the twisted pairs should take care of any potential mains pickup .
