    The employees at Best Buy told me this is what I needed to extend my cat 5e lines and it turns out it's not what they thought it was. it took them a long time to figure that out and then tell me they don't carry the piece I was looking for.

    Great product. I was getting intermittent Internet connection, especially around some parts of the house, so I purchased this Insignia in-line coupler from Best Buy. Afterwards, I was able to hook up two 25 feet Category-5e cables and get up to 100mbps ethernet connections via hardwire. This is very helpful, especially during critical applications where you just can't lose any Internet connections.

    I needed to move my router further away from my computer and couldn't because of the length of the cord to the router, this coupler solved that problem. Cheap solution and effective.

    Needed to connect a 20 foot Cat6 cable with a 25 foot Cat6. Much less expensive than buying a 50 foot and waiting for it to arrive.

    I bought this, last on the rack. Thought I'd have to god to Fry's to get this but Best Buy had it and saved me a trip. Rather have bought from Besy Buy anyhow.
