No, normal cable is not more than 10mbps. Yes, if you use it as a
router to multiple machines. If you have a router already then the
extra money will not buy you anything but maybe less agravation, you
are having troubles now, that is why you are asking, right? If it is
just for the speed, do not buy it.
