    Great price, long range, very good insulation around. Reached from my room to the modem (2 rooms over through the hallway) alot of cable left over probably only used approximately 70ft out of 150ft better longer than short id say . Now my internet speed on my pc is way faster than wireless connection it was unusable to use.

    I went from 100ft to 50ft bc I didn’t realize how long the cord really is. So I made the switch to 50ft and it works and connects properly. It automatically connects to my router once plugged in and the stableness of the connection is uncanny.

    The perfect length for the hard wired internet for my home office upstairs. I chose this because I wanted more than enough cord to get to my office. Gets tangled easily so unwind it carefully!
