Thank you John, I didn't know that. They have a 5-year old DLink 24-port
switch, that I assume is a gig. Their server is a small Dell of the same
age, probably also with gig ports. When I started looked at their
network, they mentioned that every network company they've ever used is
out of business a year or two later (they're on Cape Cod).

Do you have any recommendations if (as I now expect), the network speed
shows only small improvements after the cable change, for the switch
and/or the ports?

Thanks,
Fred
