Hi, everyone I'm pretty new with computers rather not a computer literate person. I want to buy a 20meters ethernet cable so I can connect my computer to the router. But there are different types of ethernet cables. Can you guys please help me to get the appropriate cable to connect to my computer to the router.


Seen types like. Cat 5, Cat 6 and UTP cable.

Cat5E is plenty for gigabit speeds.

Cat5

Technically not correct. Cat5e. You won't find any non-5e cable for sale, but it did exist as a standard.
