After reading many reviews I decided to buy this Cat6 ethernet cable for my home. I had to replace the old cable. I have a Verizon Gigabyte service that should give me up to 880-980Mbps. I've had about 500 downloads and download speed with my old cable (it's a Wi-Fi signal). I was expecting this wire to work better because I've seen it in reviews. But unfortunately I only get 60-80 Mbps. I was so angry because I plugged it into my house and then checked the speed and thought it was awful. I don't want to take it off completely to put it back in. I'm just saying to everyone else, study this before you. It's not what they say. We'll have to judge by how well it works.
