I bought a Cat 8 ethernet cable from AliExpress - $1.79 for 0.5m lol. I was curious what the wifi speed difference would be by just changing cables. The Telus supplied yellow cable is a Cat 5e. The difference is shockingly significant, the results below:

Cat 5e - 87.2mbps download / 316mbps upload 8ms latency
Cat 8 - 344 mbps download / 460mbps upload 11ms latency
