Question:

    I am wondering what type of ethernet cable I should use for it. Does it make much difference if I use a Cat5 or a Cat6 ethernet cable? 


Answer:

Both are suitable for the gateway.

Cat5e is good for 1GBit/s for a maximum of 100m.

Cat6 also has a maximum of 100m. Plus 10GBit/s for shorter distances. 


Cat6 is prefered.
