A Few Very Basic Questions Re a Cat 5e Cable
Hello,
Really showing my ignorance here, but please bear with me.
a. When going from my Comcast modem (broadband) to the input of a new
PC, I guess I will need a Cat 5e cable.
Do I want the "Crossover" type ?
(if not, just so I can learn, how and where is a "Crossover" type used ?)
b. Is a "Cat 5e" cable considered an Ethernet Cable ?
c. In a while I'll get a Router. But in the meantime would like to share the Comcast
modem between two PC's in the same room. BUT, not at the same time.
Looked, but couldn't find any.
Might anyone know of a A/B type of simple mechanical switch I could use ?
(Mfg. and Model ?)
Much thanks,
Bob
