My family and I recently bought and moved into a house that seems to be set up to have wired ethernet in most rooms. The walls in many rooms of the house have ethernet cables sticking out (they are missing the RJ45 connectors but are clearly ethernet cables). However, we have no idea where the cables go. We've searched the house for some sort of hub where all these ethernet cables meet but haven't found one. The previous owners also have no idea (even though they had the house gut-renovated 5 years ago and, one might think, should know everything about it). I was able to locate a box in one room, where the cable for TV/internet comes in from the outside. Besides cables going out from that box to various places in the house where you could connect a TV or modem, there were also a few things that look like ethernet cables in the box. They stick out at one end and go somewhere into the depths of the house at the other. I've attached several pictures of what's in this cable box.
Does anyone have ideas for how we might figure out what's going on with all the ethernet cables and, more importantly, wire the house for ethernet? The people from the cable company who set up our internet service also had no idea, unfortunately.
Thanks a lot.
