On my room there's a network connector, but I don't have any cable. How can I get it?
You could visit the nearest shop and buy "Patch cable category 5 UTP". On some blocks there are students who for a little bribe would prepare you the cable with connector. Cable is your possession. Before you go to buy it, measure the approximate distance between connector and your PC with some reserve. 10 metres of cable costs around 100 CZK.
What should I do, in case the cable is too long or too short?
You have no other option, just to buy another cable.
