Computer Consumer Question: Wireless Router Edition
HomeschooledByTards:
Get a really long phone cable. Run it over doorways, on the floor next to the walls, hanging from the ceiling, etc.
I had a 100 ft cord in my last apartment because my phone connection was in the middle of the room and I didn't want to put my DSL modem and computer there. I hung it from the ceiling so that I wouldn't walk all over it and so my cat couldn't get to it.
Jelenedra:
If there a recommended tool for this? Obviously tape would do... and would probably be better for the walls... but... ugh. :P
Yeah, right now the cord that connects the consoles to the modem is like 25? feet long. You can't sit at the PC when it's in use because the cord is so taut.

I screwed little hooks into my ceiling and knotted loops in the cord. Very getto. :D
The little clips you can use for hanging Christmas lights should work.
SpaceDoll:
Just google cable management; there are all sorts of clips and ties out there, both to nail in and adhesive. I think 3M even makes some removable ones, although those might be the Christmas light clips jesslla mentioned.
rosenshyne:
Pushpins work great. You don't push them through the cord, obviously, but just to the side of them so they pin the cord in place. If you get both a cord and pins that match the color of your ceiling most people won't even notice the cord.
