Shack Internet connection

My shack is about 50m from the internet modem in the house. What would be the best way to get an internet connection into my shack ?

    Hi Pete, I would use a pair of fiber to Ethernet converter boxes with a run of fiber-optic cable between them. Be sure to research everything that you need - some converters don't come with all the attachment parts needed. I saw some on Amazon that have 2 converters and two transceivers bundles together for a reasonable price. The optical cable needs to be purchased separately. Be sure to buy enough to go around any corners to get to your shack.

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
