Any modern condo should have ethernet drops in multiple rooms, you should be able to rewire them up in your switching closet.

Wireless AC is also a solution.
Building isn't that modern and unfortunately it's a rental. My office/gaming PC and the living room HTPC are on opposite sides of the condo. With all the walls in the way and not wanting loose cable on the floor, I don't think I have much of a choice.

Wireless AC would be my next best option. But that would involve buying a router to bridge to my Shaw modem, trying to get a AC card that would work/fit well with my HTPC as my office/gaming PC cant be wireless. Plus my PS3 doesn't have AC.

I was hoping for an easy fix, oh well. $20 for a flat ethernet cable and some install time will be my cheapest and most likely to succeed option available.
