@Tweety Bird asked me to send some documents to her computer workstation. I'm getting a message of "No Route". I check the network switch for her PC to be present. Nope is not even registered in the network. I've been working with damaged scraps of cable, trying to get by. Nope! I'm done. I jumped out on Amazon and found a 10 GBit CAT6 cable rated for 10 GBit. I'm going to upgrade the 2 lines between the workstations so that large data moves can happen quickly. I just remember I need to order one more short cable about 6 feet tonight, so the server and the two stations will all have 10 GBit bandwidth, and I could move data like I have the internet backbone.

That works. When I installed my security Cameras I used CAT 6 for my video and power source as it was cheap and easier to hide. So I picked up a large 1000 ft box of cable, ends and the crimp tool. Its nice being able to make a cable to the exact length i need.

Yeah. I would of bought a box and ends but I already have a 500 foot roll of direct bury outdoor CAT6 cable. I've even got two new cameras I want to mount to pole out in the yard. I need to clean up the yard in that spot so I can place a pole. Shop trash heap is in the way. Then run from the switch to both PCs is just barely 16 foot at the longest. 3 cables coming to replace the CAT5 cables.

What bandwidth does your cameras run at? Mine seem to only hook up at 10/100 shown by the network. Just the Verizon extender too. Dang cheap CAT5.
