I guess it depends what's wrong with the cable. And what the green light |

is testing for. |

There'#s a reason it's called "twisted pair" - that reduces interference |
| 8 |
from all the wires stuffed close together. If it was badly connected |
| 9 |
when it was made, or the cable's taken a hammering, or or or, you might |
| 10 |
be getting a green light because the router says "the circuit is okay", |
| 11 |
but poor data transmission because a bad quality cable is suffering from |
| 12 |
excessive cross-talk. |
