Cat-5

[Rochey69r]

hey all,




instead of buying a link cable i bought a cat-5


does it have to be a special type of cat-5 cord? or will any do??

Yes, it needs to be a crossover cable, not just a regular network cable. This is of course if you are linking two xboxes together. Otherwise a regular cat5 cable will work if you are going to say a hub.

how can i tell if its a crossover cable??? not a network

Just ask for it at the shop :)

I already have both from home networking and LAN parties, I'm still hubless though :p
