There's also "flat" CAT5 cable available. Something like this:
<http://www.networktechinc.com/cable-cat5ef.html>
<http://www.vpi.us/cable-sf.html>
<http://www.vpi.us/cable-sf-shld.html> (shielded)
Works nice for under the carpets. Don't staple the stuff.

>Perhaps I can find a color that matches the carpets.

I don't think CAT5 comes in camoflage or paisley. However, a little
paint wouldn't hurt.

>In the mean time, what wireless routers are as good as the Cisco 860?

Cisco 871w:
