<h4 class="dechead">On One Hand: It Transfers Data Quickly
The Category 6 cable is intended for use with network protocols that are also compatible with Cat-5 cables. Effectively, a Cat-6 would replace your current Ethernet cable but would transfer information much faster. What the Cat-6 excels at doing is transferring or copying bulky files or vast databases from one computer to another.
On the Other: Perhaps Too Quickly
The rate at which a Cat-6 can transfer information currently outstrips practically all Internet service. Switching to a Cat-6, therefore, would probably not increase your connection speed with the Internet or smooth out online gaming. Those problems lie with your Internet service provider.
Bottom Line
If you need to increase connection speeds between computers that are on the same local network, switching to Cat-6 cables is the difference between night and day. Files will transfer almost as quickly as if you were moving them to different places on the same computer. But until technology develops a bit more, there's no real need to move to Cat-6 for the Internet.
