Most of the time when I've run new ethernet in the house all it has required is fish tape (long coil of flexable metal tape, you use it to fish some cord through the route you want and then pull the cable with the cord) and modular jacks (replace, say, a phone jack with ethernet + phone jack in the same wall box, so no cutting holes in the wall).
Certainly a lot cheaper than an electrician or the ether over power boxes and has worked basicly everywhere I've wanted ethernet in this house.
