Superuser reader t wants to know how to repair an ethernet cable with a broken locking clip.
Ethernet cable locking clip.
Cura works edit 2 i recently posted some newer models that reflect the exact dimension per the ethernet spec.
The actual value of the plastic used to manufacture each clip has to be a fraction of 1cent but the idea the solution to a problem is worth the still low cost.
One plug has the little locking clip missing just like the part outlined in the red ellipse in the following picture.

The product does work.
Slip a rubber band all the way under the plug clip if the locking plasticclip is cracked but not broken off.
The rubber band will lift the inner non broken part of the clip just enough for you to hear or feel the click when it locks in place.

You can remove the plug by pressing down on the clip and rubber band as usual.
The clips attach to the ethernet cable and replace the broken clip so that the cable stays locked into an ethernet port.
