You can lay your own ethernet cables (we don't provide them), but please do so in a tidy manner. You must not cross any roads, paths or borders between camping grounds. Always lay your cable from the Datenklo towards your tent to keep most of the slack close to your tent, but leave a few metres of slack cable at the Datenklo. Do not use shielded cables – these can damage equipment due to ground loops and we will not connect them.
