What's the best way of storing a Ethernet Cable for frequent use (alien.top)

I am using a fairly large ethernet cable when I want a Ethernet connection from my router to my laptop. I have a 3 story house so a permanent in-wall connection is not possible (my room is on the top floor). I can't have it laying around always constantly so I use it when I need it (for playing games & such) then I put it in my cupboard

The thing is it gets tangled up. It takes me about 5 minutes to untangle it everytime. Is there a good way of storing it? Like those circular cable winder extension boards where you can roll the wire up when you're done with it and taking it out is also simple?
