Ok, Is this cable ethernet or not? And does it make a difference?

This cable does everything, including Ethernet. The redmere inside the tip of the cable will make your picture and sound better. Buy it and compare with an unredmere cable, if not satisfied return it. This cable is simply the best ever and I have tested it against Audioquest carbon, amazon basic, Cablemart elite cable, Rocketfish and Blue Cable among others. No matter what other so called experts will tell you, hdmi cables can make a difference.

Yes, it is Ethernet. It only makes a difference if you have equipment that can utilise the connection.

not sure, but CAT6 all the way has been working for me. the switch thing? not sure. these units are point2point.

Bryce, all these cables are a little different in their specs. But, they all will do the job. The older cable Cat5 is the slowest, the Cat 5e is faster, but of little difference, if you are not noticing any lag while moving files on your network or internet. The Cat 6 is the modern stuff (faster, less inference, etc), if you can afford to use it, that's the way to go. But, for normal work any one of these will do the job, and only if your doing a completely new wiring of a house or business should you think of getting the Cat 6. Of course, if your having any problems with anything wired, I would go for the newer Cat 6. Bryce, all these cables are a little different in their specs. But, they all will do the job.

There are two ways to connect - ethernet wire to your router (best way) or use a ethernet powerline connection. I ordered the Linksys powerline for $114 and literally plugged it in and it works. It uses your existing electrical outlet to transmit the signal and lost not speed from my cable modem. If you use a traditional wifi it can be limited on speed and transmission can be choppy.

yes the cable is included, other wise I think you can use the standard Ethernet cable.

That's what I would like to know also! Most of the systems will say internet ready, but only dsl. Get with the times! What will work on a 45 lan/ethernet?

The ports are USB 2.0 and the Ethernet port is 100 Mbps. However, I have a USB 3.0 hard drive connected to my router and I really don't see a difference in bandwidth between the 2.0 and the 3.0. The 3.0 never reaches past 400Mbps in throughput.

It's just a switch. It doesn't influence speeds. I bought mine to stop Charter's communication through my E-5 cable before my Firewall was booted up. ~ hnc

Sorry I can't help. This device did not meet my need. I can't remember now what I wanted it to do. I am doubtful that it would do much ethernet connecting. But please don't take that as fact

There is an Ethernet port on the bottom but from what I understand is that will only boost your wifi signal more, not turn an outlet into Ethernet. Someone else may know more about this, though.

This has only USB 3.0 and esata. I would recommend this as I have 2 NAS box from IOMEGA, and transfer rate is very low, I have cisco EA6500 with Gig port. I am getting speed not more than 10 mbps. Instead if I connect this device to the router, It does the same, with USB 2.0 and gives 15-20 mbps. I am not sure for what purpose you need ethernet.

This is likely the wrong direction for you. This is if you have working WiFi, and want a wired ethernet connection. A WiFi access point or a wireless router would be what you want.

I don't know. I connected a CAT5 cable to my device as part of my install and didn't test the HDMI cable for ethernet. The cable does a great job with video and audio. The HDMI specification states that it will transfer data up to 100 mb/sec, so you could give it a try.

It should, but unlike wired ethernet it depends a lot on the electrical wiring in your house. It's more like wifi, if you're near the access point then you get a higher bandwidth, if you're far away there are other access points, or noise sources the bandwidth is lower. In this case it depends on how far (electrically, not distance although they're somewhat related) the two end-points are, if they're on the same phase of electricity in your house, and how much electrical noise is present in your house (big motors and the like).

thanks for clearing that up. I can't believe they'd leave the ethernet port off of the "streamlined" model, though. Very annoying! Hopefully still worth it, though. Should be a great picture, which is the most important part.

It is stated to support ethernet according to the Monster website on this cable, have not tested that aspect personally. Has been flawless otherwise.

I bought it for an ethernet connection to my PC from cable box. Don't know if that helps you.
