I don't want to call you a liar, but what apartment do you live in that your router is 70 feet away from your TV? My house, which is an average 1300 square foot house, is only about 45 feet long front to back. If this is really the case, you probably have the money to afford a $100 adaptor, because 70 foot long apartments are called "penthouses".
I thought I was going to have to go with a 25 footer, but I found out that vents go all the way through walls, so I got away with an 8 footer.

 

20 meters = 65.6167979 feet

Its not that my router is 70 feet away from my tv. But i'd have to nail it along side the "strip"(?) (translation?), the wooden thingy that goes along the bottom of the wall. Otherwise i'd have to have the cable across the hallway and through the livingroom. My appartment is 775 square feet according to this conversion table: http://www.metric-conversions.org/cgi-bin/util/conversion-chart.cgi?type=3&from=3&to=11

So no.. im not a liar :D

To back him up I used a 100ft cable from my PC to entertainment center for video and audio from the PC. It travels around the outside wall of my apartment and over 1 door. It is only a 2 bedroom apartment and isn't large by any means, but the PC and TV couldn't possibly be farther apart

Anyways, you can buy an ethernet cable for dirt cheap especially if you can make it yourself, you just need to know someone who has the tool.
