Ethernet cable no longer working?

Okay I don't know what to say now. I just went and bought a 50 ft ethernet cable, it was a cat6 and not cat5 one because they didn't have any cat5... well it DID NOT WORK.

Basically when i connected from laptop to the last ethernet porn in the router, all it shows is the computer searching for a signal.

This makes zero sense because the ethernet cable is brand new. And yesterday we had 2 extra ethernet cables to test and one of them didnt work but the other one did ... as when i connected that short ethernet cable to last slot on router... it worked and there was a wired connection.

Does anyone know why in the world my ethernet cable isn't working since its brand new? Could it be because its a cat6 instead of cat5?
