Recommended OBD cable?

I'm getting ready to buy an OBD ENET cable, what are most people using?

The two I've seen off Amazon, one was linked from BM3...

Good reviews: https://www.amazon.com/Ethernet-Inte...gateway&sr=8-3

Mediocre reviews (linked from BM3): https://www.amazon.com/BMW-ENET-Ethe...rds=enet+cable

I'd get the cable from rgsport. I bought mine from him and haven't had any issues with the cable in two years and i've used it to code 3/4 cars.

Not sure it makes any differences but I also used the Oem dell usb 3 to Ethernet adaptor. standard usb to ethernet should also work
