There is a much cheaper and hassel free solution.
its called
Powerline Ethernet
It's exactly what its called, it uses your powercable to run ethernet connection. its 85megabit so its pretty good !
yes, this is also anotehr good solution.
I've never done this as of yet so i couldn't tell you how much strain it'll put on your powerline system or if its worth the hassle.
I have been using a powerline adaptor for just over 6 months. I have had no problems wit it. I can stream video from youtube without a hiccup [I have cable internet]. I have played online games with no problem, can even dl files from newgroups/torrent sites with no problem. Installing was a peice of cake, just plug the powerline adaptor into a outlet, hook the ethernet cable to pc, then on the other one hook it up to the router. No software needed.
The only draw back is that you can't run them thru a surge protector. Also you'll need a few free outlets in your router room, if you have more then 1 pc located somewhere else in the house.
They also cost around 100 bucks and max speed is around 5mbs.
