How much would it be to run a Cat6 cable from the router downstairs to a switch in the attic?

Start with 100m of Cat6 cable : about €66 https://www.screwfix.ie/p/time-cat-6-grey-4-pair-8-core-unshielded-ethernet-cable-100m-drum/384jy
Add any trunking / routing / lifting floorboards etc that might be involved
Add a few sockets at either side to allow your patch connections
It's not a difficult DIY job - takes a small bit of patience and some planning
