I'd like to run some ethernet cable in my wall through a suspended ceiling to a room where I can terminate the cable. I've not done this before. Most videos show DIYers up in their attic with ample space to grab and pull a wire. I do not have that luxury. I can't fit in the space. How do I get my cable up the wall and then pulled 12 feet through that space without getting stuck on one of the joists?

use a flexible rod with a kink in the end that allows it to ski over obstacles

when I was doing satellite TV installs I used 1/2" pvc conduit for this task.
