The ethernet cable needs to be connected to a router or modem and it works fine although I chose to purchase the CAT 6 ethernet cable. The speed test for the internet connection is faster with the ethernet connection than with the WiFi connection and I have never lost a connection like I did with WiFi

Pros and cons of cat6 cabeling?

Cat6 cable is very similar to Cat5e cable. It is, simply put, just held to a stricter standard than Cat5e cable. Since Cat6 is made to a higher standard than Cat5e it will support higher speed transfers. Cat5e cable can be used for networks up to a 1Gbps speed while Cat6 is currently rated for up to 10Gbps speed. Cat7 takes this even further and supports 40Gbps. For normal usage on networks up to 1Gbps and no run being longer than 100 meters, Cat5e is completely sufficient for the network. To ensure forwards compatibility it may be worthwhile to install Cat6 cable while you're at it so you don't hit a speed cap in your network down the road.

What cable is to used in a PC to PC network?

That question can be answered several ways depending on how you wish to connect the PC's. If you plan to go from one PC directly to another PC, you'll want to use what is called a Crossover cable (typically made out of Cat5e network cable). You can also use other cables to accomplish this if you know what you're doing, such as Firewire or even USB. If you plan to use a switch or router in between your PC's, you will need a straight cable which is also Cat5e. Hope this helps.
