Help new system blue

[mwaters]

Which instruction? Have I missed something? Crossover cables are for connecting computer to computer directly, not computer to router. I immediately used a normal ethernet cat5 cable and it worked.
The system blue assembly instructions say:
"The router is connected at the RJ45 network port with a shielded twisted pair network cable (FTP,STP, S/STP, or S/FTP)."

I fully agree. The instructions I read said to not use a crossover cable.

And although I now use a shielded cable, it worked perfect without either cable being shielded.
