I first bought this ENET cable from Amazon. I used my multimeter to test it before using. The built-in resistor inside the cable connector, which is supposed to be 511 ohms, was about twice that value. I returned it (you can see my review on Amazon).

I then got "BMW OBD2 ENET Cable BOOTMOD3 F-Series Coding i3 i8 ESYS 3.32.1 OBD-II G30 G12" from eBay, sold by "diagnostic_interfaces" (I am not able to find the correct eBay page right now; perhaps contacting diagnostic_interfaces will reveal what that cable is called now). That cable was a keeper. The resistor was 515 ohms and the soldering looked like it was done by a pro. I have used it since January without fail.
