It's gonna be used to connect Powerline Adapter to modem. Distance will be 20 meters tops but probably less. Haven't measured yet.

Also, is it worth upgrading to another Powerline Adapter? Currently using TP-Link TL-PA4010KIT AV500 Nano.

CAT5, CAT5e, CAT6. For 20 ft., it doesn't really matter.

what?
how is 20ft close to 20 meters

he stated 20 meters
20 ft is 6 meters

but whatever it dont matter if cable is too short right?
but yes all depends on how fast his network, but any type will work fine

CAT5 can do up to 100 meters, so it doesn't matter. :)
