FIOS Router & Cable

I'm on the FIOS 35/35 internet plan.   I have been using WIFI on my

laptop but I am going to add a new desktop using a hardwire.  I need

a 25' cable to do this so is CAT5E OK or should I use something else.

Where do I find what Version my FIOS router is.

Thanks

An ethernet cable from Category 5 through Category 6 is fine.  The router does not care what category the cable is as long as its an ethernet cable.   Without getting into any great detail most places will sell you a Cat 5E cable which will work for your application.
