Is there an ethernet port in gateway me computer?

[jon_45]

Does anyone know if there is an ethernet port on an old gateway me computer? and wherebaouts would it be located on the machine?

Almost all computers have some type of Ethernet port. It is an RJ-45 (looks similar to a phone jack, but slightly larger), and is usually located at the back of the computer.

Yes, it is there, but won't fit the cable that I recieved. Thank you for clarifying this for me.

The cable should be a CAT5 or CAT6 Ethernet cable. CAT6 is newer, but CAT5 will work just as fine.

I should be able to find a computer store that has a CAT5 cable. Thankyou so much for your help with this. This should resolve the connection problem.

Great! Local stores like MicroCenter, CompUSA, Fry's, WorstBuy, etc, all carry this CAT5 cable.
