85mbs download and 11.5 upload. I love it!

The reason I bought this Ethernet cable is because my upstairs Wi-Fi connect was very slow. I simply ran out of patients and had to have something faster. I have xfenity/Comcast Internet and they advertise "up to 100mgs download speed." When I ran a speed test on my wife's computer downstairs (right next to the router) she was getting an average of 85mbs down and 11.8mbs up on her Ethernet connection. That is excellent.My router is a Linksys EA4500 and they recommend at least a Cat-5E cable. I bought the Cat-6 just in case I want to upgrade to a better technology someday. I installed this new Cat-6 Ethernet cable from the router downstairs in my wife's office to the computer in my office upstairs. The total length is about 90 ft. I then ran a speed test to see how much better the Ethernet cable is than the old Wi-Fi connection. It was amazing! I was getting 8mbs down and 5mbs up on the old Wi-Fi. I am now getting 85mgs down and 11.5mbs up with this Ethernet cable. I love it! It is a great product and I recommend it. The price is reasonable too.
