It can? We have a 15m crossover but the longest straight cable is 4m iirc, with a belkin router and an ntl modem (think it's a 100, im at uni so can't check!) would the crossover work?

Yes. The NTL modem will sort it out.

This 200 has worked with both crossover or straight cables, even when swapping them while system is working/being used.

Now I have a crossover adapter for spares :D
