TSGL: cable troubles

[Engineman1 at aol.com]

Hi, I have 3 computers, 2 desktops and a laptop on a Lan. The  desktops
are plugged in to my router with ethernet cables and the laptop  is
wireless. At least once a week I have trouble going online. When  this
happens I check the cables and usually find that one will move  in
about 1/32" and I'm online. Apparently the METAL connectors in  the
cable do not make contact in the socket. This happens to  several
different cables and doesn't seem to be caused by anything pulling  on
them. It may be that I inadvertently bought cheap cables. Rather  than
replace them, (they are relatively new) I would like to find some  way
to make them fit tighter but be removable. Maybe coat one side  with
RTV silicone? Any ideas?
