Keep it simple.
My PC is in the 'Office' at one end of the house. I have it connected to a small hub\switch in the lounge at the other end to support the media PC and stuff. I run a cat5 cable out under a door, beneath a deck then just a spade split 'trench' across the lawn. Cable is only a couple of inches below the surface for about 5 meters then pops up near the Ob into some plastic conduit and up through the floating floor. Cable is about 25 meters long. When\if it deteriorates I'll just get another cable. It's been there nearly a year now and it's still working.
Simple, cheap, reliable.
