Connect LAN sockets in the apartment?
Hey dear community,
I have LAN sockets in my two-room apartment (picture attached). In the storage room, there's a sort of distributor. I assume one is labeled "bedroom" and the other "living room" (picture attached). My idea was to connect my router, which is in the living room, to the socket via LAN. Then, I would have to run a short cable in the distributor in the storage room from "bedroom" to "living room" so that internet now flows from the socket in the bedroom as well? Could that work? And what could the third distributor cable be for?
Storage room distributor (I think the middle and right cable says "living" and "sleeping"
Sockets in the living room and bedroom.

A CAT7 cabling. Not bad. When it’s done correctly, each cable goes to a can. If you want to connect two cans, you need to put a short patch cable in between.
Normally, a switch or router would get there and then plug all connections into the router. You have a LAN connection in your room.
Oh! It’s even grounded! Great!
Thanks for your quick answer. On the box in the storage room stands at the bottom right CAT6, I don’t know what this is relevant. The router is unfortunately not in the storage room because the Internet comes from the cable connection in the living room!
CAT 6 means that you can operate up to 10 GBit/s via the cable. So certainly more than you have on the internet connection.
That should be Zul, it’s the shortcut for delivery. So where normally the signal for the router comes out, but you get via cable that is currently unnecessary, which should probably lead to the basement where the phone connection is.
