Title: 25' Ethernet Cable
Post by: Denied on October 22, 2010, 04:11:15 AM
I read that I need a 25' ethernet cable for the LAN.  Does anyone have an extra I can borrow?  I only have 6' cables, and I don't want to take any chances. 

Thanks,
Denied

Six foot might work depending on how far you are sitting from the nearest switch.   But in any case we usually have spares.

I love monoprice. Ran cat5e drops with wall plates to most rooms in my house. I'd stay clear of their wii batteries and accessories they didn't seem to last me very long.
