why on earth would anyone crimp ethernet cables when monoprice exists

One of my jobs few years ago just switched to CAT6 when I got there.

tho seriously opening a ticket and dealing with all that would still probably take longer than to just order it off monoprice

i guess im just not a good resource for making cat5 cables

The problem with bureaucracy. I was the guy that made it or did a job and told them to send a ticket after I fixed the issue.

i dont understand why cables come in twisted pairs if that's not even practical for real use
is it just a manufacturing thing?

Why do they even come shielded when unshielded is cheaper?

it's because spotify skips sometimes or youtubes are slow

It's probably a hardware or software issue like you are still using a HDD and Windows.
