Silly internet question

[chrisbb]

OK.
In my house there is a wired and wireless connection.
On my macbook (2008 Al) the port on the side is gigabit internet.

In my house the cables are all ethernet (blue cables). These do not fit in the port on the side. Is there a way or an adapter to convert the ethernet to a gigabit connection?

Thanks,
Chris

Ethernet is Ethernet, regardless of if it is 10Base-T, 100Base-TX, or 100Base-TX (Gigabit). Try a different plug, because you are likely trying to plug into the Firewire800 port.

Take a photo of the cable that doesn't fit.
