Review on ๐Ÿ”Œ High-Speed 6FT CAT7 Shielded Ethernet Cable with Gold Plating for 10 Gigabit Networks - Cables Direct Online (6ft, Blue) by Rob Dixon

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Speed โ€‹โ€‹limited to 100 Mbps

I use this cable between my cable modem and router. Initially the cable worked fine (I was able to get the speed advertised by my ISP). Unfortunately over the course of a year now my modem reports that it can only see one downstream connection (to the router) which is limited to 100Mbps despite being plugged into the GB port on my router. All of my wired and wireless speed tests were below 100Mbps. Since my router was old, I bought a new router but continued to have the same speed issue. I've since replaced a different brand of cable and although it's only been a few days I'm experiencing full speed again. As less than a year had passed I contacted the seller hoping that some sort of warranty was covered.

Pros
  • Same as everyone else
Cons
  • Secret
