I recently ordered a 15 meter Cat5e LAN cable. I use Powerline adapters.
With my laptop and another 2 meter Cat5e LAN cable I get up to 170 Mbit / s and at least 115.
My PC is a bit further away, however, so I wanted to connect it to the adapter with the 15m cable. However, I only get around 100 or less on my PC (I also tested with my laptop).
Maybe someone knows what that could be?
Perhaps over 15m distance too many interference signals & too little shielding of the cable?
How do you raise the speeds?
I have line lengths of up to 100 meters and there's no loss, it is always 100 megabytes per second from the clients to the servers and back.
I don't know what your Powerline makes of Gigabit, because you don't write which Powerline products you use. And you don't write what you measure either! The traffic from computer to computer via the powerline line and the router or do you do speed tests on the Internet?
I use the TP-Link TL-PA8010P KIT 1300Mbit / s. I do the test on my laptop which is attached to the adapter that is in my room. This then gets the Internet through the other adapter in the living room that is attached to the router. I have a 250k line and through the 2m cable between 115 and 170 Mbit / s arrive, while only about 100 Mbit / s arrive through the 15 m cable. I do the tests via speedtest.net. I check the speeds but in the task manager of Windows.
No.
Cat 5e has no losses up to 100m of cable length, so the cable would go through gigabit without any problems.
I have relocated the cable further away from other cables. Strangely enough, 145 Mbit / s is now arriving on average. At most about 165 Mbit / s and at least 115 Mbit / s.
