Hey guys I'm hoping someone from you can help me. I am wondering does it matter if my router is closer to my PC or closer to the source of the signal, IE the wire from the wall.I am talking about a WIRED connection, should I buy a longer cable to reach the router, or 2 shorter ones and put the router in the lets say middle of the connection between my PC and router. Does it affect the signal, packet loss, speed etc?
