If you can't reach the spot on the ceiling by hand from inside then start off the roof. Just tape what you are pulling or use a string and connect to the rod. On the wall you go up thru the outlet you are using with the pole with a string with a loop. Once it in the ceiling use another pole and go from the ceiling to the pole you have sticking up from the wall with the string and using the hook end on the ceiling pole grab the string and pull it to you. Then tie the string on the cable and gentle pull the string from the wall down and you cable should come with. When I use string, I wrap it a couple turns of tape to help secure it to the pole. Should be some video so you get the ideal.
