Stupid question: Should I get new cords? My internet comes in through a phone jack and then I connect the XOne through an Ethernet off the modem/router (centurylink 40mbps). Using some cords I've had for nearly a decade. Really not sure if it makes a difference since it's a functioning system currently. Moving on . . From here you say I need to set an IP for the console. Is this done on the console or through the computer where I change router/modem settings? Or both? And how do I know what IP to set?

  • Checking your through put on the cables is smart. It's rare, but I did find a bad cat5 in my set up, just tested with a pc and large file transfer. It was performing at 30% of my good cables

    Cat 5 is fine for 40mbps. Even at long distances it can carry 100mbps

  • Why would he need to go up to cat6? Serious question. I thought that cat referred to the amount of shielding of the wire is the plastic coating.

  • You can use cat5 for sure. But get with the times 6 provides better shielding and a gb+ connection lolzz if you have google fiber get 6.. Anyone can use it though I use 5e on a 10mbps connection lmao
