Networking to a garden shed

Hi,

My neighbour has just built a garden shed and wishes to setup a pc with internet in the shed. My obvious suggestion was wireless however they already have this but do not pick it up down in the shed (approx 30m from the house). Therefore i think the best setup would be to run an ethernet cable from the wireless router to the pc - is this the best way?

I was looking at just buying a 30m crossover cable, will this work?

I have looked online for 'ethernet cable' but there seems to be no results for this term, to the cables have a more technical term which i should be searching for?

Try a search for:

direct burial cat5

That should give you some results for Ethernet cables designed to better withstand the elements than the typical cables for indoor use.
