Cat6 Ethernet Cable 30m

Recently Virgin Media agreed to up our broadband speed from 120Mb to 350Mb for free, nice! However the 1000mbps powerline system I had in place only went just over 120mbps and I wanted the full speed to our devices. I then tried an uprated powerline kit and still only managed 150mbps. So then I decided to do the dreaded ethernet cable run from the router to the back of the house. Then I found that you could get flat ethernet cable that would be less noticeable to run through the house, my only concern was that because this wire is so thin, then it may still slow the broadband connection. So I decided to risk it and buy this 30m lead and installed it, then I installed the Ookla speed test app on the family desktop, plugged the new ethernet into into a gigabit switch, then into the gigabit port on the back of the pc from the switch, connection was immediately established and a sigh of reliefe. Then with bated breath I ran the speed test and..... Over 388Mb!!! Wow that's a huge difference over the gigabit powerline which capped out at 125Mb.So in short if you're on 200mb plus broadband and want the full speed that you're paying for on all your wired devices. Then this flat cable is excellent, I can't comment on 500mb and above broadband as ours Topps out at just over 380 but I can imagine there is still plenty of headroom in this cable.

This flat Ethernet cable is exactly what I wanted in order to be less obtrusive, since I have to run the long cable from the TV box in the living room to the the broadband router in the hall way. However, I didn't judge the length that would take because I clearly didn't need 30 metres, probably half that which is why I've had to stuff the excess behind the small bookshelf. Still, is probably better to find you have too much length, than to find you don't have enough.

I bought this to connect the kids PS4 directly to the router to overcome lag and WiFi issues which was affecting online games.It is very flat, barely 1mm thick, but after wiring it up through the loft and into the bedroom, connected it up and all was well, with the PS4 reporting a healthy 65mbps Internet connection.It arrives double coiled so you have to unroll it all (I bought the 30m length), so be careful when do so as not to snag it or tangle it.There are also some cable grips which is a great touch.

I've been using TP Link powerline adapters the last few years, probably longer and recently just got fed up with the random internet disconnects despite trying all sorts of fixes including switching off power saving mode on the plugs via the software, creating a task scheduler ping, changing plug sockets...nope, still got disconnects.Decided I was going to buy a cable and run it out the front of the house all the way around the side of the house to the rear and in to my bedroom. 30m was just long enough !!Connected to my pc and ran the OOKLA speed test, went from 75Mbps using the TP link plug to 220Mbps using the cable, no brainer !!Took me about an hour to run the cable and clip it using the not very many clips you get with it. Holes were already in the walls from previous Sky installations etc so that saved some time.Great cable so far, not sure how long it will last outside but that we will have to wait and see.

i bought this as i was getting a high ping on some online games, making playing by WiFi impossible, this cable is long enough to reach from the opposite side of the house and up the stairs to my pc (not an exact measurement i know, bit still) the cable i thin and discrete my housemate didnt even notice i installed it and my ping is down from and average of 137 to 25 in Overwatch couldn't be happier
