Re: WRT54GL and giga speed? Ah, gotcha.
Technically speeding Cat6 cable is the standard for building gigabit networks.
If you have factory made Cat5e cables (look along the length of the cable for printing describing its specs) they should work fine. Even good quality (and terminated) Cat5 cable should work. |
