It works as it should and is durable! The speed of this cable is just as good as the fancy packaged ones for sale for three times the amount. If you are networking on a budget, this is going to get you going.

The cable length is perfect for my needs—fourteen feet provides enough reach from my router to my workspace without excess coiling or slack. The Cat-6 specification supports faster data speeds than older Cat-5e cables, which is future-proof for my internet needs. The gray color is neutral and blends well with my office décor. The connectors are solidly constructed and fit snugly into ports without any looseness or disconnection issues. The cable jacket appears durable and shouldn't fray or degrade easily with regular handling. The data transfer speed is noticeably faster compared to my previous older cable—downloads and uploads are quicker and more reliable. The cable doesn't seem to have interference issues; my connection remains stable even with other electronics nearby. The price point is reasonable for a quality Ethernet cable. After several months of regular use, the cable maintains its performance without degradation or connection problems.

We were changing the layout of one of our computer setups, when we discovered we'd be too short on the length of the existing ethernet cable. Thankfully Best Buy was open. We chose the 25' cable (it's available in a number of lengths) as it fit our needs. Got back, threw it in, worked like a charm. Speeds are where there supposed to be, no connection issues. That's about al I can ask from a cable designed for a specific task.

This 50’ Cat-6 Ethernet cable worked perfectly for my setup. I used it to connect two routers in different rooms so I could have a hardwired internet line across the house and extend my Wi-Fi coverage without relying on repeaters or extenders, which usually don’t work well.
The cable is solid quality, easy to run between rooms, and provided a stable, fast connection right away. It was a simple and reliable solution for improving internet coverage throughout my home. Definitely recommend it if you want a more dependable alternative to wireless extenders.

This Cat-6 cable works exactly as expected. The length is perfect for reaching across a room, and it provides a stable and fast internet connection for gaming and streaming. Good quality and no connection issues so far.

Of course you need this! Who wants to put up with a poor wifi signal? You want good enough internet access out in your back yard so that you can show an Amazon movie on your laptop, or hook up a projector and watch the big game, or connect your wired security cameras, and have a connection that won't lag or drop. This will get the job done. Plug one end into the router and the other end into any device with an ethernet port. This cable has made all my outdoor gatherings more fun. It's also convenient-- it can be rolled up and stored when not in use. Just try not to get it tangled, 150 feet is a lot of cable and you'll be sorting that out for a while.

My apartment has no wifi but it has ethernet ports. My computer is pretty far from the ethernet plug so my cable has to stretch pretty far. It's been stepped on and played with by cats and it's still perfectly fine. Good speeds on it too.
