Reply to comment by Sleepdprived in can you run an ethernet cable through an empty conduit in your house on your own? by VanillianArt

What if there is already another cable in the pipe? Will the vacuum/compressed air methods still work?

When that happens I usually fashion a tiny parachute and attach it to the string, then vacuum. The parachute can bounce around in the diameter of the tube a bit better so is less likely to get snagged on the existing wire as it gets pulled through.
