You can buy both types of cable from any computer shop for a few pounds.
If it was working then stopped a common reason for this is accidently clicking the uplink button in/out on the router/switch, effectively changing the type of cable it needs to work. Check to see if you have an uplink switch and if so make sure it is set correctly...

Good luck. |
If I'm looking at the same model it autosenses whether the cable is cross over or not, so I don't think there is any button to press.
