Can you provide the text printed on the cable itself? hmm.gif

Also, 30 metres for RM13 looks almost like it's a copper-clad cable hmm.gif

You should see the recommended brands of cable on 1st page, and get a Cat6. You might have bought yourself a Cat5, or a badly crimped Cat5e. Just as possibility to consider.

Also, RM13 for 30 meters seems to suggest that it might be a copper clad cable, rather than pure copper one. Some manufacturers use copper-clad aluminum wires (i.e. 'wrapping' the aluminum wire with copper) to save cost hmm.gif

Even AMP Netconnect 5 meter CAT5e cable cost something like RM34 hmm.gif

Did you even read the 1st page at all? Stop buying dodgy RJ45 cable from China and see the brand I list on the 1st page!
True. It is up to him. Already given him the link so if he still wants to buy cheap cable from China, it is his prerogative.

Don't be so judgmental towards him laugh.gif

Anyway, note that lower quality cables tend to degrade signal quicker over distances compared to high quality ones icon_idea.gif

In addition, longer copper cables (especially those lower quality, copper-clad ones) may mean lower signal quality over such distances, and thus result in a slower link icon_idea.gif

StuartLee2015 's slow network issue is particularly a good example here as he actually called TM's technician to fix his issue, only to find out that the issue comes from his CAT5e cable sweat.gif

Not being judgemental, but I have given him the link to the 1st page, and yet he still asked my opinion on the suitable RJ45 LAN cable, and even give me a link on some random brand from China, which might or might not be shit. How do you think I should respond when everything is written on the 1st page?  rclxub.gif  bangwall.gif
