Ethernet LAN Network Cable UTP Lead 30M

So, there I was, with my new modem router with wireless but the house is old and the wireless does not work. The reasons are many and varied but to put it simply, wireless does not like brick walls and steel.

I would have used the internal phone cable that had been fitted many years ago but it was costing me about 50% loss in broadband speed. Should be about 5.8 megs but was only getting about 2.7. So out came the old cable and hence the need to purchase the 30 metre metwork cable.

For those that are not in the know, if you have to run a cable for your internet, use a cat5, rj45 plug, ethernet network cable as these are designed to run up to 100 feet without much signal loss. After I fitted this and tested this pc wirelessly, I was still getting the same speed as I was getting plugged in directly to the modem! The cable clips are also listed below along with the link for the cable. I also need an aerial cable for my freeview box in the kitchen. Whew!

Now, it's time for a cup of tea (smile).
