 Posted: Thu Nov 21, 2002 10:12 am Post subject: Network Question |
 |
|
| I have a network question. I am networking the computers in my house to share cable internet. I have two computers, a cable router/4 port switch and of course a cable modem. I know the basic design of a home network/shared internet but I'm not sure what kind of Cat 5 cabling to use. There are a few different kinds. Can anyone help or does anyone know any how to's for home networking that involves shared cable internet? thanks |

snagless and molded are prolly just stronger and more expensive...
Just get generic cat 5...no frills...it'll work...
