What would happen if you plug an etherkiller cable into the ethernet

>>55656010

You would get charged

>>55656010
Nothing. Ethernet is isolated on each end by optical isolators or magnetic couplers. Worst you could do would be to burn out the cable.

>>55656010
You kill everyone in your city and everyone working at the ISP

>>55656010

>>55656010
It blows out the local office. Don't do it.

>>55656010
at best: nothing
at worst: lawsuit for damaging $100k worth of provider's equipment

>>55656249

Where do you live that has cat5 cable run to peoples' houses.

>>55656673
Not him but I have cat5e, what's the big deal?
A bit on topic, would a current ISP that provides their own hub/router/modem be able to be accessed with a 3rd party modem?

>>55656911
I'm from Canada, I've only ever seen phone line and Coaxial. I thought most places did that or fibre optic.

>>55656929
It's probably fiber up to the house then terminated and split into cat5.

>>55656911
You have cat cable within your house/building. The isp is connected by fiber/coxial/phone cables. You plugging in that kill cable will just fuck up your own stuff and not the isp's. Also fiber uses light so electricity wouldnt even be able to do anything but fuck up your ONT.

someone give me the "free ethernet" in library image

Unless you have business internet access (not cable-company bullshit "business internet") you don't have an Ethernet jack coming from the ISP.

In any case they would charge you for any damage done to their equipment.

He could possibly burn out the switch inside the building though, killing the internet for everyone in the flat.

>>55656339
An IT person wouldn't fucking plug that in, it would cause work for them.

>guaranteed work for life just by sticking it in random computers around the office

Yeah, sure. Wouldn't happen at all
