Overclockers uk sell straight (Not crossover) cables from 99p for 1metre, 2.99 for 5 metres. Why take a chance on crossovers maybe working, maybe not?I know you have to add postage, but it isn't exactly expensive.
having said that, I've used crossovers to connect a router when it's all I had, and it worked.
