20 Best Internet Cable For Gaming (2023 Updated)

Works as suspected. I’ve given a bit of time just to see if I would run into any issues & this cable has handled my connection without a single hitch. I was initially concerned that maybe my connection would suffer with such a long cable but ABSOLUTELY NOT.

Just as solid as it was when I had a 2 foot cable lol. Highly recommended.

Looks just as described, feels heavy duty and works great

It just suddenly stopped working. Didnt even last 1 month.

Amazing how this cable has done so much for me. Will purchase from here again soon.

Good product will buy from you again thank you

I bought this because another shopper remarked on the success with a Roku player, and I’ve had the same success. I connect it to my modem/router in the living room and run it 30 ft to the Roku in my bedroom.

I’m impressed with the quality of the plug connections. They’re very stiff and durable, not at all like the plugs on the standard ethernet or phone cord. Good quality and I definitely recommend.

Majority of cords are 25 feet and I was concerned that might be just a little short, so I ordered this one. Works fine.

Needed to move my network equipment to a different location and used this network cable as an upgrade. Cut to different length as. Low price and recommended.

No more cat5 any more if you own anything that is of “modern” tech. I found that the cat5 head would not fit “snugly” in the ethernet port, just like anything that is not USB 3 (3. 1/3. 2?) (or whenever they made the changes from the first type of USB to.

what is it now USB 3. 1 or 3. 2) or newer; easy tell is looking at the substrate that is sticking out inside the port, it will be of a differing color. cat5 era of speed looked white (in the USB ports, from what I can tell.

), while the cat6 era of speeds look blue, and I’m sure that there are faster speeds that have a different color to their PCB if that is what I am indeed looking at, inside the port. Yeah, I just checked, I bought approx.

the same time a Roccat head set and a Razer Basilisk mouse with a 2. 4Mghz (receiver/ transponder) and the 2. 4 has a blue color to its substrate while the headset is of a white color and does not fit into the port correctly (that is it does not fit snugly, like if I were to be using my windows 7 machine).

I’m sure all of you, who might read this already know this. As for me, I had no idea. Oh, and it’s a lot faster with the more snug fit comes thicker wire and probably some more connection points. I’d have to say the same is true for the differing USB’s as well.

If I’m wrong; I do apologize, please feel free to ignore this and correct me if you would not mind. I just wish that when I bought my new machine that the sales person would have told me about the changes; or at least the manufacture could have put in a small pamphlet explaining why your old flash drives and your cat5 cables don’t fit snugly.

At least the HDMI protocol is still the same, well physically anyway.

As we all know, working from home adds a layer of performance to the home equipment that is not necessary when working from the office. Two of us were required to work from home for the remainder of last year.

My desktop, with a direct connection to an Ethernet switch and the modem always worked properly. My partner’s laptop, however, insisted on randomly shutting down off the WIFI, then going into airplane mode.

It was easy enough to me to reset the adapter, but not so easy for her to do every few hours. The solution: Hard-wire her laptop into the remaining open port in the Ethernet switch, and permanently turn off the WIFI adapter.

I bought a cable long enough to make the trip, and used CAT6 cable to assure the cable length had no adverse affect on the laptop performance. It has been 4 weeks now since the cable was installed, and the laptop has functioned perfectly.

I like when my technical solutions work as planned!.

Okay I get it. It is device that we use to connect the devices that we love, but having a good cable sometimes can be just as important as the device itself. If you are looking for a qality picture, sound or just providing the right amount of power to your devices you want a good cable or power cord to connect those devices.

Now is not the time to go cheap because you get what you pay for. For example, if you spend several hundred dollars on a good TV that provides a good picture a cheap HDMI cable is not going to cut it.

If you want good sound from you optical device again you have to pay for quality. If you want good network connections then again why be cheap LOL! The last example is a good power cord because how many products can be damaged through poor power cables.

So in conclusion do what you want but for me a quality cable is important after spending hundreds of dollars on a device.

Electronic Geek here! I’ve used hundreds of cables at this point. And can say with certainty that not all cables are constructed equal. The first thing I should point out is the one-piece design from the cable to the connecter.

This makes for a stronger cable and connection. It will last longer because there’s nothing that can become frayed or snap altogether. A quality ethernet cable makes all the difference in constant connection.

Just from the design of this one, I know it will last a long time.

My dorm’s Wi-Fi is miserably slow without a hardwired connection, so. I finally decided to buy an ethernet cable so I could get work done. I’m really satisfied with the length, durability, and quality of the cable.

It’s exactly what I was looking for, and the difference it has made in my work has been profound.

I reviewed the 50′ Cat 6 Ethernet Cable and it seems to be a good product with one flaw. This cat 6 cable has the perfect length at 50′, which I can go all throughout my apartment. I love the jack covers that protect the punch down, But I’m leery about the plastic punch down retainer clips that always seems to fail on all other cables like this.

Time will tell if it holds up to plugging ang unplugging. Phillips makes great electrical products so this cable should perform well.

This came in very handy during lock down. This long cable was very useful to have wired connecting for my TV as the Wifi has been very flaky these days. Lots of modern laptops don’t have Ethernet cable port so it isn’t useful for work.

If you are looking for long good cable for your TV, desktop this is highly recommended.

i recieved this GE Cat 5e Ethherent Cable 3ft-black. i love it. needed this really bad. comes in handle charging stuff. very durable and is long enough to reach long distance. thank you for letting me review this awesome product.

Makes sense, but you don’t fully appreciate it until you actually try it! I switched out an old ethernet cable for this new one and really appreciated a greatly improved, faster transfer speed. I didn’t realize that I was limping along so slowly before switching to this cable.

I was excited like most to get a nice set of cables for my network cabinet. I recently decided to test these flat cables I had bought in these past. Half of them on my network were open or had a short.

So I decided I would switch back to round cables and try a couple of CAT 8 cables on my NAS. When I tested all three cables tested open. A continuity issue. Then when I put them on my Southwire cable test or one had a shielding issue.

I think the shielding was grounded to one of the wires. Newegg is sending me replacements. If these have issues Im going to the distributors that sell to the installers. Because Im finding most cables have issues.

When my switch and wire test or are finding bad cables. What gives. Is anyone testing these cables out?.

Definitely recommend this company. I was looking all over am*z*n for a good Ethernet cord but all the reviews for cords on there seemed to say the same thing mostly: -Advertised as Cat 7 or 8 but was actually 5 or 6 -Flimsy, made in china garbage -stopped working after a while for no apparent reason However, these cords seem to be exactly what they were advertised as.

Hopefully they hold up over time. I will update if anything goes wrong.

Would recommend this product CAT8 if you are looking for a more Secure or Solid Connection without getting any interruptions or kinks in the cable But not if you are expecting a faster download speed

I prefer this type of snagless cable end. They are easier to remove when necessary. The cables are durable and work as advertised.

I had several devices to connect to ports on my wi-fi router. The longer cables were unsightly and always in the way. These 2 cables are ideal for connecting hard drives, etc.

Cables are well made and very useful for me. Used them for different things to connect to my ISB router. It came on the 7th sooner than the 13th that they told me. Great service! Will order again from Walmart.

Thanks!.

Needed these for connections within a product. No speed tests were done as they won’t be operating at gigabit speeds. Cables are terminated as depicted. Cables are surprisingly thin. The specifications do say ~Ø0.

12″ but, the pictures just don’t prepare you for how tiny these are.

SF cable has the best selection of cables I’ve seen anywhere, and at the best price. They’re far less expensive than Amazon, which doesn’t even have a complete collection available. And the cables are well made, with molded connectors, not homemade press-fit.

I’m very happy with my purchase. Now if only they can do something about the shipping cost. Maybe offer a slower, less expensive shipping option. Right now the cost+shipping makes sense for me only if I’m ordering several cables at once (to share the shipping cost), which means a lot of the time, when I only need one cable, I have to go elsewhere to purchase.

But still, I’m very happy to have discovered SF Cable.

Would like to see this in 5inch as well. Smallest i could get was a foot. But great price! Helpful chat members. Customer service speaks too low and too fast. Had a hard time hearing MaryElla, but courteous.

We will continue to order from here again. Thank you.

I use this cable in varying lengths for hardwiring my audio/video system. I stream my own collection of CD quality and hi-res music from a NAS, and music through Spotify, as well as streaming various content through an Apple TV 4K.

The quality of performance I get is vastly superior to the quality of streaming through the wifi. If you live in an apartment complex with everyone around you using wifi, you’ll appreciate the improvements hardwiring with this CAT8 cable will make.

As a side note, I also regularly work from home for an insurance company and use a long length of this cable for the setup. I have never experienced any issues and it handles all of my virtual meetings and tasks perfectly.

It’s a damn fine bargain for the quality you get!.

This 50 foot long ethernet port is being used to connect to a router in my room at my college apartment. So the ideal thing for a poor college student to do would be to string an ethernet cord out of the room where the original router is, around my door frame, around the perimeter of the room, and to my router (yeah a bit ghetto I know, but hey, it’s college! haha).

🙂 I’ve got to say, I was very excited that I found a 50 foot cable for only $8, but was a bit concerned that the quality would be poor because of the price, but I decided to take a gamble. I was surprised though, and very pleased.

The cable connectors have a sleeve that protects the plastic tab that locks the cord into the port; this way it won’t snap off when you pull the cord bundle out of a box of cords or something like that.

For me, that is essential because I have a lot of computer cords. Quality. I would give the quality a 4 out of 5 stars, because it does feel a bit cheap, but it does seem like it is going to be durable enough for what I am using it for.

Also, because it was only $8, I would say that the manufacture went above and beyond to create a cable that has a decent quality for the price. To wrap it up, I will list some pros and cons. Pros: -Excellent price for the quality -Works just as wellas any other ethernet cable -Comes with a sleeve that prevents the plastic locking tab from breaking Cons -The cord feels a bit cheap, but for the price this isn’t an issue.

So far, so good. SO LONG. I didn’t realize how long 100 feet would be. I live in a 1300 sq ft home and I could have gone with 50 feet. Oh well. Live and learn. Works like a champ and provides plenty of speed.

I set this up because the hubby was tired of waiting hours for COD updates to download. Now, he waits mere minutes. All I did was hook it up to my router and BAM! He’s back to plundering and yelling “I’m down, I’m down” over and over again.

?? Worth the $$.

Cat 6 Ethernet cables deliver the most consistent Internet experience. These LAN cables are very flexible and can be “woven around” door frames with ease. The outer coating is durable and doesn’t crack.

I’m very pleased. Please check out the company CMPLE. They are local to their area and have great pricing for Internet [network] accessories.

This cable is more than good enough for residential gigabit internet. So far it has been working perfectly between my ASUS AC3100 Router and my gaming PC with Xfinity gigabit internet. No lag whatsoever, so I have 0 complaints.

I connected the router to the switch I use to feed the rest of the house. All units showing better access then before.

I went way over the top using this in my home setup, but I’m happy with the product. The connectors are good quality. When I get gigabit internet this cable will handle the speeds.

It solved the need. I would have preferred a longer cable. Not many in stock due to covid.

Cable was the wrong size so I went back to the Staples store where I bought it. I had my receipt which showed I paid cash and they gave me a Staples cash card. When I protested, they stated it was company policy which is ridiculous.

There are signs all over the store advertising easy returns, which is simply not true. What a scam! Now I am stuck with a $14. 00 cash card for a store I don’t want to give my business to.

Excellent quality, 2 meter length and color coded, very helpful! Excellent price.

Nice patch cables. Solid termination and the boot is a cool add-on although not needed. The variety of lengths and colors is the big plus when organizing a data rack! Very pleased

These Cat 7 cables are solid built and are good for 50 or 100ft runs as needed. Sturdy cable and solid RJ45 ends. I highly recommend Cat 7 vs Cat 6 and especially Cat5e. Right now Cat 6 can do the job of carrying UHD 4K and HDR+ signals but for a little more money run Cat 7 and future proof for Gig internet and home networks.

I bought these cables to run from a cable modem bringing in a 60mbs internet connection to an ASUS router and off to several rooms including my theater room equipment. Watching UHD movies via internet via VUDU and Amazon is smooth with no lag.

My wifi could not reliably support multiple computers and the throughput was slow. So, I upgraded my router to Gigabit capability and realized that a standard modem-to-router cable was not going to give me top performance, so I bought this one (Cat 6).

Now I have excellent wifi on multiple devices. This high-performance cable is part of the solution. 5-stars.

With conversion from a workplace to working from home, it became necessary to re-arrange my home office space. I did my best to estimate how far a new cable would have to go to reach from my router to any position on my new desk area.

The 50 foot cable is perfect! My only wish was that it could have been in a different color. All our household current cables are blue or gray/white and I would have loved one in black or even red!.

The Ativa Cat 6 Network Cable is what I needed to plug into my Router. It was perfect because I needed a very long one to reach, and 14 feet works great. The only negative comment about this cable is the color.

I wish it was black because all other cables, and electrical cords are black in my computer room. This blue cable stands out like a sore thumb, but it is efficient and gets the job done!.

I’m no technophobe but I prefer what I grew up with–a long time ago. Since I don’t even have the vocabulary to describe what I need done, let alone what I need to do it, I am so very appreciative of your patience and graciousness getting me what I needed.

Dinosaurs, take note! These people are grand.

Works well. Used to run between the modem and router. I am pleased with this item.

These cable with the steel jacket around the plastic housing enables for a noticably tighter link. I like red because it stands out among all the blackness. I will be using Cat5E cables, red in color from now on.

YOURS. Thanks for the quick help through the usps.

I was setting ups some gear and needed direct connection over a distance that was longer than most cable. Best Buy offered up the item on line and it was noted that it was at my local store. I ordered it then 3 hours later went and picked it up.

Thus, the entire transaction for this cable went without a hitch. The cable itself comes in a drab plastic type of bag. This is no frills as they likely know those who order it wont care for inviting packaging.

I would like to give this cable 4. 5 stars but it only allows whole numbers. I would have given this cable 5 stars if the rj45 connectors on the end were of a higher caliber. Overall the cable does its job and the speed of transmission is reflected by its cat 6 designation.

The cable does exactly what it needs to do, and the blue color is nice. That’s pretty straightforward, but If you still need some convincing on how much Ethernet is needed, I have some words for you.

The difference is substantial for consoles and PC. I thought the use of LAN/Ethernet was over exaggerated but it was all true. I went from 200mbps to 500mbps, which resulted in incredibly faster download speeds and streaming.

If you often play games online, please get yourself one of these. Wired connection is much more reliable than wireless and reduces latency. You’ll notice the difference immediately.

No issue with this cable. Plenty of length, snap in rj45 connector for secure connection, no drop in signal for me. One is ran over 20 feet, the other about 70 feet through to back bedroom to legacy desktop that’s only b/g/n so this is significant improvement over wireless.

Also swap it to a dell dock for work laptop without any issues. Would recommend. The pale purple is an improvement over the standard blue, but grey would be good too.

I purchased this cable to connect my Xbox One to my router to get maximum use of the internet. I have had this for several weeks now with no problems unless its a router problem. Connection and speed are great, I have used it for streaming films and playing games.

Definitely worth the money.

This cable is a standard cable for extending computer networks. The quality is good and will do the job required of it. Faster cable is more expensive and not normally needed.

A simple job to do, but a perfect product, versatile and secure. Using in a TP Link network.
