Two items I need to buy...
1) I have more devices than ports on my 4-port ST546 ADSL modem/router. I have a multi-port bridge sitting right next to it. A 6-foot ethernet cable connecting the 2 is a waste, and contributes to "crow's-nest". A 12 or 18 inch ethernet cable would do just fine.
2) Ditto for a short USB-to-microUSB adapter. A 6-footer is OK for my desktop. But when I'm travelling, and offloading smartphone photos to my laptop, a 6-foot cable is clumsy.
When I needed some short USB cables recently, I got them from amazon. monoprice might be a good choice too. -- Len Sorensen
