So I checked out the Onsale store and low and behold they are affiliated with Macmall who is notorious for taking peoples money on backordered items and not letting them know, so buyers beware I would recommend staying away from this seller. So now instead of hooking up my network I will have to wait maybe another 3-4 days for the new cable I ordered to get here, which is very unacceptable and very bad buisness practice.And by the way amazon is in the process of resolving this,but I figured I would let the everyone know the facts about this seller, it isn't the money which is chump change its more the fact that I now have to wait even longer for my product. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Cables *by J***D on Reviewed in the United States on July 19, 2015* SEE UPDATE BELOW (5 Stars)I bought 10 of these cables and have used them in different places in my home with some success, but my home theater PC was limited to 100Mbps for some reason, so I switched the cable from the Ethernet switch to the wall out with one of these cables. I tested the speed again and it dropped to 10Mbps. I swapped one of these Belkin 5ft cables out for another one and tested it, still 10Mbps. I then switched the original cable (non-Belkin) back in and the test immediately showed improvement to 100Mbps.I don't know why this is happening, they are both Cat6, Unshielded Twisted Pair, but the other Ethernet cable is 10 feet instead of 5 feet.UPDATE (Oct-18-2015): This cable ended up not being the problem. When the tech wired my home, he accidentally switched two wires on the Cat5e cable connector on the other end (near my router). Now both cables I tested, this one and the other one, run at 1 Gbps. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.nz/products/9828116-cat6-snagless-patch-cable-5-blue-a3l980-05-blu](https://www.desertcart.nz/products/9828116-cat6-snagless-patch-cable-5-blue-a3l980-05-blu) --- *Product available on Desertcart New Zealand* *Store origin: NZ* *Last updated: 2026-05-12*
