Ethernet cable help!

I have an EE broadband hub with an Ethernet cable that my delightful rabbit has bitten through, I can't buy one through EE and need to try and find a suitable one, Google searches have said there are a different types, I'm not a techy person in the slightest, so are they all the same or does anyone know which specific one I need for the EE hub.(in the UK if this helps)

@bwrighteyd Is that the cable from the wall to the router? If it is you need one of THESE

if it’s the cable from the router to a device ie PC you need one of THESE

You don’t have to purchase the ones I linked to there more of an example for you to see and what there called.

Hi @bwrighteyd you can get a replacement cable from PC World/Argos/Amazon/eBay or even your favourite supermarket. Jus t pick a length and go for it. Cat 5 is plenty good enough up to 100m, so don't worry about any other more expensive types.

Post a link if you are not sure.

HTH.

Let us know how you get on.
