“Can this ethernet cable connect my ATT internet modem to my streaming player? I have wireless ATT internet but when connected to the UTV top box player, it keeps buffering and I can't see the video. UTV box customer service suggested connecting ethernet cable directly from the ATT internet router to the UTB streaming player. Thanks for your help.”

Yes, this product will work.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.As long as both your modem (or router if it's not a 2 in 1) has an open ethernet port, and the streaming media player does, as well, you will be fine. Unfortunately, without knowing your exact setup, I cannot know for certain. The port in question looks like a classic phone line port, only a bit wider, as seen in the included picture.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.If both devices have ethernet ports there should be no problem. Most people i know with uverse use a router with multiple cat5 ports.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Has same issue so bought this and now no buffering when streaming videos from netflix.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Do you need 25ft of cable? This is what you're looking for, just make sure you you need all the extra cables. Also check your Internet speed since sometimes is not the connection but the Internet speed.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Since this is a cat 5e cable, it should easily supply the speed you need to stream.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes, it should do the trick, assuming that the Internet modem and streaming player are no more than 25 feet from one another.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.As long as there is a port for cat cable on the back of both devices and it is for net communications then the answer is yes .
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Should work just fine
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The question is how is the data reaching your router. I.E., cable broadband, satellite, radio, or cellular. It sounds like your wireless signal may be the limiting factor in the buffering of data. Radio, satellite and cellular internet services will claim large data rates, but that is shared between all connected devices. Carriers will often limit data rates as you reach 50% or higher of your monthly data plan. I might suggest running a speed test to check what your data rates are. There is little difference between wifi speeds and a cable unless the distance is very large. (Over 50 ft or between floors). I get the same data speeds in the basement with the router upstairs. If not, then there are wifi signal boosters, unless you want to run a cable. Then go with a CAT 6 cable as the data transfer rates are double what a CAT 5 cable is.
