Is there any particular type of ethernet cable I need to look out for? For example, will this CAT5e cable be ok? http://www.c2g.com/uk/product/83266
Thanks in advance
CM

I certainly didn't expect an arrogant interogation and sweeping judgement in response to it.
Rest assured i won't be coming back here to ask another; i will go straight for Plusnet support next time - i doubt they would offer the same level of arrogance/judgement.
Many thanks to pwatson and dvorak who answered nonetheless.
Cheers

Quote from: shalom2010 Really unsure why the question is being asked as the link says
"Snagless design for network adapters, hubs, switches, routers, DSL/cable modems, patch panels and other high performance networking applications.
So the cable is OK for the WAN port of a DSL router?

Totally agree with that comment, cm.
I'm also a non-techy, and I would have been doubtful about being recommended a "DSL/cable modem" when I was looking for a connection to a Fibre modem.
I tend to use usenet for my queries - I've found people are generally more friendly/helpful than in forums.
