Jim,
The system I used the shielded Cat-5 cable with is a Toshiba PCX-2600 cable
modem with a short 3 or 5 foot shielded cat-5 jumper to a Dlink DL-604
router,
>From the router I have 4 computers connected with shielded cat-5 cable.
Each connector of each cable has a metal shield connected to the shield in
the cable. The connector shield contacts the female connector in the router
or modem for ground. I did not use an external ground to either the modem or
router.
2 of the shielded cat-5 runs are 50 foot, the 2 others are 25 foot runs.
