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?

Yes that is the correct cable type. And you can use an inline coupler to join two cables together (although I would not want to join more than two because each coupler will slightly degrade the signal). Another option would be to buy bulk cable, connectors, and crimper tool and make whatever length you need.
