What do you mean flash on top of gnouton? I am not tech savy when it comes to this.

Currently have an ax86u. I flashed it with gnouton firmware to see if that would fix this instability issue I have. It somehow made it worse so I am trying to go back to the default but whenever I flash the stock firmware from the Asus site the router will give me an error message and go right...

@JemTheWire Thank you very much. What exactly does the green one mean then?

On my motherboard, when the ethernet cable is plugged in, there is a green light at the top that blinks constantly, and a orange light at the bottom that does not blink and stays constant. Does the blinking green or the orange light mean the ethernet cable is bad or something?

So, do I have to give it more cable length to twist around or can I just twist it how I did it and it won't lose speed/break?

@OzarkEdge Wait, my bad, it was not 45 degrees. It goes in at 180 but I have to completely turn it for it to go into the socket cause of the clip. So a full 180 turn

So the ethernet cable does go directly into my router port so I have to twist it like 45 degrees for it to go in. Will this kinda twist damage the wiring/weaken speed? I am not twisting it completely, just a little bit for it to go into the socket.

@L&LD So what manufacturer/company would you suggest since I only know about monoprice?

@bluzfanmr1 So what is the difference between the two cables from the links?

@L&LD I have something to ask. What is the difference between these two cables? Idk which one to get. https://www.monoprice.com/product?p_id=8600 Or this one https://www.monoprice.com/product?p_id=11276 They seem the same yet they are being marketed differently.

Ok, this is my final question, I am probably going for a cat6a. Do I need a better device for connecting my PCs via ethernet to? I have the AX82U currently and I am not sure if two computers connected to it via ethernet will cause instability issues. I see those switches that come with like 10...

Will the difference between 60 ft and 75 ft for a ethernet cable cause any noticeable effects?

So do you recommend cat 5e or cat6? Will a 75 ft cat 5e ethernet cable not affect the speed at all? Because I am trying to find a 60ft but it seems reputable places like Monoprice only sell 50 or 75ft @L&LD Thank you for answering btw

So anyone have a good recommendation for cat 5e thats 60 feet? I am seeing that cat 5e is more stable than cat8

Cat8 is the newest standard I thought? Do you have a recommendation for a good Cat5e cable that is around 60 feet? Will it still be stable at 60 feet? Would a cat 6e do better? Is it ok that the ethernet connector at the end kinda wiggles a little bit in the motherboard ethernet slot or should...
