I have bought cable internet from teksavvy and the modem arrived however the cable that comes out of the wall and goes into the modem where it's labelled "Cable", is very short.
What's the name of this cable? But most importantly can I buy one that can extend this cable so I can bring the modem closer to my PC?
If so, please advise where and which cable I should be looking for? Would canadian tire carry this item for instance?
Pictures? Pin count? Anything? – Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams – 2012-05-23T00:19:17.943
I couldnt find a picture of it because typing modem cable only seem to show ethernet cables. This doesnt have pins but you secure the cable onto the modem by rotating the end attachment, so it has the ridges(?), not pins. – Joan Venge – 2012-05-23T00:26:40.680

1Get some better lighting on it so we can see in the end of it. You say there's no center pin/wire, a blip of light seems to make it have one. – Fiasco Labs – 2012-05-23T00:58:22.287
As Fiasco said, please retake the picture with better lighting. I tried to enhance it a bit, but there's only so much you can do... – iglvzx – 2012-05-23T01:00:10.967
lol guys I only have ipod to take pics and there is no light in that room and the cable barely reaches the window and it's already dark outside. – Joan Venge – 2012-05-23T01:03:28.263

In the states Radio Shack tends to be the place to go, though Walmarts carry them. Your cable guy just pulled some coax off a reel and crimped the ends on. – Fiasco Labs – 2012-05-23T01:31:42.760
