when connecting a router to a computer, do we use a straight or cross over cable? the cable is 100ft long and runs close by to power lines, is this going to be a problem?
Straight cable, cross over is from computer to computer.
100ft long and close to power lines may not be a problem, but it will definitely add a lot of interference. The more interference you have, the worse of a connection you will get.
