Just wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction, I am looking for a 2 or 3 metre cable to use with my modem I have received from UPC, I have bought 2 cables in a retailer, which both degrade the signal and speed immensely, the official ones with the router say conn 3.9, where can these be bought?? I have already asked UPC for a larger cable to which they said they can't do it

Many thanks
Dpjmie

You need to buy either Rg6 or CT100 cable which is the sort of quality cable UPC are using for their cable runs.

I presume you're using bog standard tv cables with the pop on plugs? No use at all. Make your own is really the only option although sites like satcure do sell cable terminated to the appropriate length.
