Sorry to one and all but now I'm totally confused.
What I need is a cable, not a plug, thought the cable connecting my phone line to the livebox, modem router was called an rj 45.
I need the cable to connect the ethernet card inside my pc to the modem router.
Would rather buy it online but to do this, of course, must be sure of its type and name.

Most grateful for any help.

Cheers now,

Marie

Hi,

The DSL goes through the RJ11 socket, the RJ45 plug is what you need for
the Ethernet to your computer.  If these are the same Live Boxes that
Wanadoo have in the UK, the USB port emulates another Ethernet card in
the system processor, which yes will slow things down.

ah, as usual, I didn't use the proper terms I expect, I use the livebox
of
Wanadoo and I suppose it should be called a modem router, at the moment,

it's plugged to a phone socket with a rj45 and a usb cable to my pc, I
want
to use the eternet card on my pc because I'm told the connection will be

more reliable and faster.

Thanks for your help as always, Andrew,

Cheers now,

Marie

Hi,

Actually it is an RJ45 ethernet connector (straight-through, not
crossover).

If you have cable then you may have an RJ45 connector connecting the
router to the cable modem.

Subject: [access-uk] cable type to connect my pc to my router

At the moment my pc is connected to the router via usb.
I would like to modify this to a ethernet connection.
The cable is not provided with the router and I cannot be sure wich
type 
of
cable to buy.
I know it's an rj something but is it 11 or 12?
All I've been able to ascertain is that it is not an rj45 because
that's 
the
cable that joins the router to the phone plug.
I bet loads of you know the answer to this elementary question and I'm
sure
that after the frustrating fruitless searches I've done this morning I
will
remember it forever.
So please put me out of my misery!...

Cheers now,

Marie
