I previously posted about our internet services, with a picture of the cupboard above the entry door that contains the cellular modem:

I decided to consolidate the internet stuff into this cupboard. So I hatched a plan to run a power cord from the outlet above the windshield to that cupboard:

I removed panels in those cupboards:

The mess of cables behind the panel in the front cupboard:

I used my drill with a large bit:

…to cut a hole in the panel:

…to fit a grommet:

…for the power cord, which I pulled through by tying a strap to it:

Getting the cord through the small gap behind this speaker was rather tricky (I lost a bunch of skin):

…but I managed in the end:

I installed another grommet in this panel:

The cord then plugged in to the power outlet (the front TV also plugs in there, and for some reason the top outlet only receives power when the ignition is on… maybe I should plug my dashcam into that?):

The other end of the cord has a power strip with electrical and USB outlets:

Then I moved the other internet devices into the cupboard:

In addition to the modem, it contains the MiFi hotspot:

The power strip:

A fan to cool the modem, as it gets rather hot:

And the security camera base unit, that has an Ethernet connection to the modem:

I subsequently removed the door of this cupboard, since I was leaving it open for airflow:

It’s not super tidy, but it’s nice to have everything in one place.
