$500 for an ethernet cable? Who would pay $500 for what amounts to nothing more than an ethernet cable?

You don't understand. This is not a cable, it's a work of art that deserves its place in the MoMA. The purpose of the artist here is to poke fun at the people who spend too much on cables. This is just like Duchamp's "fountain".

Have the same question. Even Best Buy has them on the store shelves for 69.99 each. And the combo should be significantly less since it probably only has 1 transceiver, and 1 extender 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?

I used this cable to wire my PC directly to my router. An Internet speed test shows me getting 28.6Mbps down and 5.88Mbps up, as of this moment...which is at leas as fast as what I pay for. I have no way of testing the LAN throughput, though, if you are looking for Gbps machine-to-machine transfers. I suspect that it would be fine.

"nothing more than an ethernet cable?" My friend, it appears you have much to learn in the ways of being better than everyone else in home electronics.Price spent > Actual performance. Once you learn this simple rule, you will be the ultimate audiophile, ready to rule the world with Bose Cubes and Monster HDMIs.Sad thing is, I was actually considering getting rid of my HK receiver and trying a Denon, not anymore.

$5.59 cable from bestbuy as recommended below should not work, you need an "expensive" cable which has circuitry inside to translate the signal from computer to the meter. For example this one: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00RVRCV0C You also need to download Alpha Tracker software from abbot website to manage the data.

My apologies, Larry I miss informed you. It does come with a power cord, but does NOT come with an Ethernet cable. This comes from the "Quick Install Manual" on the On-Networks website.

An ethernet cable is a network cable - also known as Cat-5 - that would need to connect to your internet router, if you have one.

It uses custom cables. Each 12ft extension cable is $100. So tack $200 onto the price tag.

It is a proprietary cable but a quick search on Amazon shows several starting at $0.95.

@Regula, great link. Thanks for that. I'm currently a cable customer, but I'm moving in three months. The new place has coax wired everywhere and I was considering renovating to add ethernet (cat-6).If I can get the satellite company to install their own coax, then using the netgear product may be a good alternative to renovation.

Just a Ethernet cable or WiFi. No need for a computer. Also for a in detail review/rundown on the minix neo x7 check out supercharge ios on YouTube that's how I found out about the box.

The $12 cable works well for me. It did take over a week to arrive in the mail however. I think the local Radio Shack sells a lot of expensive cables to people who want to get their system running and forgot to order a cable when they ordered a system.

you won't gain any more. CAT5e is capable of reaching 1000base.Stick with what you have and save your money.

Mine came with an adapter that lets you plug in a standard ethernet cable. Haven't actually tried it though.

I don't know but $300 is a ripoff. As you say, no wifi or HD means this should be $150 in my opinion. Its a freakin' accessory and not a Slingbox. Bad move Sling.
