Review on Mediabridge Ethernet Cable (3 Feet) - Supports Cat6 / Cat5E / Cat5 Standards by Scott Pentapati

I've used this from my Linksys 24x8 modem to my Belkin 1900 "BEST" dual band router and it's no faster than the free 5e cable that comes with the used Time Warner 8x4 Modem was supplied which was free and I have had it for over 5 years. It should have been free, even $1 is overpriced as it only costs 5e, it doesn't increase speed and the plastic tabs are made to not "break" when switching from router to x-box or modem , but to me they seem to break at any moment and I treat them like fragile glass. I have mild OCD, sorry, but that's the only reason they ain't broke. I really just want to cut it to see if there is any difference with the 5e standard and this CAT6. Your picture showed a well shielded set of wires, but I doubt it if I have anything bad or they are all junk.
