Re: Can I connect 2 ethernet wires

Short term you can go with the coupler, long term I'd recommend purchasing a longer cable from Monoprice, where they are about 90% cheaper than Best Buy.

I just took a look. I don't understand the description. Is this what I need :

25FT 24AWG Cat6 550MHz UTP Ethernet Bare Copper Network Cable - Yellow . It says something about CAT6 straight cable.

I appreciate the coupon, but I only need one and it says it's $4.44. I don't see shipping mentioned. (I haven't measured what size I actually need yet.)

Please let me know if this is the Ethernet cable I need. Thank you.

Sincerely, Libra

You need a straight cable. Pick the color and length that you need and order it. After you pick what you want the next page will allow you to see the shipping. It will be more than the cable, but less than $10. At Best Buy the cable is $32

Best Buy is what I'll use if I can't wait. Monoprice if I can wait. The more you buy the better Monoprice is, but even with this one cable you're getting it half price.

Thank you Kilroy. As it turns out my husband removed some of the staples and I am now able to put the router on my desk. I did bookmark Monoprice - it sounds like a good deal.
