Our ethernet ports in our bedrooms never worked since we moved in. Wifi is fine and we assumed it was a bad cable from the termination hub to the modem. So we ran a new cable through last night and punched down ourselves. We wired it according to the color codes and since our hub is a 568-A version, all the others looked fine too. But our ethernet still does not work. Any suggestions? Here is a link to what our hub looks like https://smile.amazon.com/Open-House-H628-Termination-Hub/dp/B00013BNVG/ref=pd_rhf_dp_p_img_5?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=3KNRG37ZD9Y0BGN3B6QS Here are pics of our cables as well. The blue ones were already plugged in when we got here and we did the whiteish/gray one.

Ik finally ready to setup networking right at new house and realy don't want to use WiFi if possible. I sometimes hate my self because of that Is there any real reason to use FTP CAT6 instead of UTP if network cables will run outside wall and no way near 220 power lines. Only 3-5 meters will be two network cables next to each other. With network cables I will connect 2 computers 1 tv Freenas sever In total about 40-50 meters of cable. And about Modular plugs. I'm only seen cat6 plugs for UTP cables but does it mater?

First of all: Hi everyone! Second of all: English is not my native language so please ignore my grammar :D So I'm switching my room with my mother, both are next to each other. Now, I have an RJ45 passing through two rooms to the one I have my PC now and I need to extend that RJ45 so I can reach the new room which is 3 rooms far from the router. Also, I would like to install here a Wifi Access point so I can use wifi in my new room. So, I was wondering what is the best solution, maybe there is an access point capable of both things, or maybe I need to use an ethernet hub in order to duplicate the connection and have one for the access point and the other for my room IDK guys. Hope you can help me and thanks in advance!

I am fixing to run three lines of Ethernet to my Living room from my Current switch. I am unable to run the cables inside the walls (Double wide Mobile home FML) so a surface run is my only choice. I am trying to figure out what I should use to hide the wires and make it look nice. I was just wondering if I used a metal conduit or Raceway, Would it impact the performance of the Ethernet cable? Im currently running Unshielded twisted pair.

Hey guys I recently planned to switch my POE injector splitter to Gigabit to facilitate higher than 100Base-T speeds. Now I am stuck in a weird issue as shown in the below picture I am running a CAT5E cable for about 30ft from my router to a wall RJ45 Socket. From that Socket I run another CAT5E cable to the ISP provided ONT (Image 1) I was using a 100Mbps (2 Pair Passive POE injector Splitter earlier). Now I switched to a Gigabit POE injector Splitter (Image 2) After the upgrade i tested it out in dd wrt Console. And it reported my link speed as 100Base-T. So I resorted to testing it out with a network cable tester (Image 3) I am able to get all 8 pairs connected from the wall socket to my router. I inserted a patch cable from the network tester to the socket just to make sure the socket is not at fault. I am able to get all 8 Wires to light up. I again tested from the wall socket to the ISP provided ONT. Again all 8 Wires Light Up However when I link both these cables from the router to the ISP Provided ONT ( The 8th Wire alone goes blank). Beware that this is all before even the POE comes in. Do you guys have any insight as to why this thing is the case ? Isolated Network Layout (Image 4) Image in below post

Hi, This is my first post. In my company we are working on a new technique which i will not go in to. The data will be exposed over a 10Gbit DA/SFP+ (active copper) connection (vendor-less) but the actual data throughput will remain around 1Gbit/s. FYI there is no server/switch or any networking equipement involved. We need to convert this SFP+ connector to a more common (preferably RJ45 or 1Gbit/s SFP) connector. We are aware of the speed difference but maybe somehow you can suggest something to get around that. From what i found online is that it is possible but the equipment selection is quite vague. Can you guys help me?

I'm planning to set up a pfsense rater basted network and wondered if you need a separate modem for an adsl rj45/Rj11 Internet. If so does anyone have any recommendations. Thanks

I have a 50 meter cat5e cable that i presume has a broken connector I am trying to do DIY rj45 ethernet cables and I was wondering if the 50m cat5e cable is the same thing as patch cables. Does anyone also know a good crimping rj45 header for cheap on amazon?

Basically I've moved into a new property. They have ran telephone points in several rooms but the cable is actually rj45. My question is what speeds and what cables do I need to connect? So the telephone line comes in down stairs to my hallway and bt have now fitted a master socket 5C as shown below. In my bedroom there is a wallplate where they have put two RJ11. I want to change one of these to rj45. How will I get an rj45 back into the daisy chain of rj45 from the router point in the hall way? Not sure if I've explained what I want to do that clear. But if you need me to explain more please just ask. Thanks. Also I think the fastest I can get is 100Mbps since I will only be able to use 3 pairs (6 cables) since the other 2 cables are used by the telephone line in of course. 100Mbps will be fine though( I believe it only needs 2 pairs but correct me if I'm wrong)

I recently built a pc and I want to connect my pc wired, so I bought and Ethernet cable and I found out my connector is wrong in the wall. I have a female BT end and with an adapter to an rj11 I think where as my cable is an rj45 I don't want to make a new socket in the wall so can change the BT socket to an rj45 or can I get an rj11 to rj45 adapter, although I've not seen one.

Hi, anyone can provide me a diagram or scheme for the 8 pin mini-din to rj45 cable? I have a Bose ps28 and i can't find the cable that conects the Bose AV28 to the subwoofer, the cable is the 8 pin mini-din to RJ45, so i bought a RJ45 and the 8 pin connector, and i wanna know what's the correct order to weld the 8 copper cables of the RJ45 to the 8 pin connector. EDIT: formatting.

Hi. Sorry if I'm in the wrong section... After watching "Double or Triple Your Internet Speed - This Method Actually Works!" I started thinking about speeding my connection. At university, if I bought an expansion PCIe ExpressCard 34mm NIC LAN Network Card (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B004M18EDI/) and plugged in with a standard RJ45 CAT 5e on the ExpressCard AND my standard, motherboard NIC, would I double my connection speed? Would I need additional software? I would like to note, when I do a speed test, my speed between ~1000Mbps to ~500Mbps for both download and upload. So, how would that work?

I am doing a bit of home networking and I need some cable crimpers. I am using cat 6 cable, and the crimper I am buying https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008UY5WL0/ref=crt_ewc_title_huc_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A397FHERGRZQ2E , says it comes with cat 5/cat 5e crimp connectors. Do the connectors themselves need to be cat 6 compliant? I would think they are the same because the wires are the same, but i'm not sure.

Hi all! Straight to the point: In school we have internet on an RJ-45 connector. My IT teacher is a bit disorganised so he ordered two adsl routers (6-pin plug, with 1 and 6 unused). My question is how do I make things work? Someone please explain if those standards are compatible with eachother and if yes, then can you provide a pinout of both connectors so I can rewire things to work. Thanks in advance!

Hello to everyone on the forums! Hopefully I did not title this topic wrong, or chose the wrong forum. If not, let me begin with what I am trying to accomplish. Basically, I have been building a secondary PC for streaming purposes, and I am finally done. However, the PC is meant to stay downstairs, together with my LAN modem and switch. I had an idea, where with a capture card from my main (gaming) PC, I would transfer the signal, so that the USB cable from the capture card, goes into a LAN extender cable (which I cheaply got off ebay), and then through my network continues down to the streaming PC. When I finally had the chance to test it all out, the capture card wouldn't function properly. LEDs were dimming with darker brightness, and Windows did not recognize the device. It turned out that the voltage going through the long LAN cable is not enough for the capture card to work (about 10-15 meters to be exact in length). So I was thinking, and I believe that this is actually possible, to use a phone charger as a power supply to the capture card with the 2 USB pins that provide power, and let the other 2 USB pins (the data ones) deliver data to the streaming PC downstairs (since through the length voltage is being lost, data shouldn't be a problem). My question is, what is the best way to split this thing and make it work? The cables should look like this: One coming from the charger, and one coming from the LAN extender, and then both combining into one USB where I plug my capture card. The first cable will be power from the wall, while the second will just send the captured video game to the 2nd PC. Hopefully my idea can be accomplished, and is not that difficult to do. I am thankful in advance for any help provided! Thank you so much for reading this! Have a nice day everyone! -Marko.

Hello guys, i'm trying to connect via the console port to reset a Cisco 2960 switch that i recently bought. I also bought a couple of adapters to make it work and it is connected in the sequence : Console port -> ethernet cable -> Startech RJ45 to DB9 Modular Adapter -> Startech DB9 Serial to USB Adapter -> Laptop Since the RJ45 TO DB9 Adapter is modular, I have to manually wire the pins to the right spots. I found these pinouts to help me : https://sgcdn.startech.com/005329/media/sets/GC98FF_Manual/GC98FF.pdf http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/wireless/access_point/1240/installation/guide/1240hig5/124h_e.pdf https://allpinouts.org/index.php/Cisco_Console_RJ45_to_DB9_Pin It looks like this : (Sorry for the subpar pictures) http://imgur.com/a/wrtNn Then, in Putty, this is what I see : http://imgur.com/4QGaiWc It loops like that and it seems to be slightly different everytime. i've tried to reboot the switch and it does reboot normally until you get to the "Press RETURN to get started" where it starts to loop again if i press something. I've also tried reversing the black and yellow wires but it only replaces the characters in the loop with non-alphabetical characters. On the tek-tips forum the user "wires" says that he uses the following pinout for cisco console cables : Again, it did not work. I don't really know what to try next..

Hey guys, at a friend's house, I noticed that her ethernet cable is so broken it'll only register in one orientation. That's obviously extremely annoying, so I gave her an ethernet cable I still had lying around... it fits in her laptop just fine, but not in the wall, for there the cable already there has this connector (see picture) I've never seen that before. So... what IS this, and where can I get one for as cheap as possible? (Obviously we'll also ask the facility management, as the cable seems to be provided with the flat) Cheers, John

Well i was looking around for used electronics on Blocket and i found a coupple of small laptops, both for $60, might be able to get that down a bit possibly, and i was wondering which one is better for $60, the HP/Compac 2510p or the Asus Eee pc 1018P? there both tiny and portable and thats what i want, i want something that sitts on my desk, that i can watch youtube and chatt on and then take with me were ever i go. i dont plan on running any games on it what so ever and i WILL upgrade the RAM to around 8GB dual channel with whatever the max clock RAM they can have, because that can really make a difirence on some laptops. i also want it to have a RJ45 connector(ethernet port) because i might use it for some basic networking stuff too. thanks for any replies and any help

Hi all, I'll be moving house in the next few days and want to have the router in a different part of the house to the phone jack. I don't really want a new phone jack installed as it is quite expensive. I have a couple of questions; Is there a way to use an RJ45 cable for the DSL connection or does it have to be RJ12. If not is there anywhere I can get a decent sized (50 metre) RJ12 cable. Or is there another option. (Don't want powerline either as it crosses circuits in the house) Cheers.

Hi, I have a server with one built in gigabit port and another from a PCIE to gigabit card and a mobo with dual gigabit ports. I currently just use a single gigabit connection. If I connected both dual ports to my gigabit switch is there a way in which I can get 2 gigabit speeds? Thanks, James

Hey all, got a question for you. Generic 8 Port Ethernet Switch Vs Branded 8 Port Ethernet Switch Is there really a difference in performance (mostly for gaming on a LAN) between them as they do the same thing as I have bought some generic stuff (usb 3.0 hdd enclosures and stuff) and it works perfectly. Thanks in advance.

Hi Ltt I am currently looking for a wall passthrough for the RJ45 connection for the internet. So I can run a cable from unit to the wall and than another cable from the wall to the modem/router. Something like this http://silink.en.alibaba.com/product/732664064-212614575/Systimax_RJ45_Faceplate_Single_Port_Dual_Port_Four_Port.html I am not sure that's exactly what I need so if you know where I can find what I am after please point me in the right way. Regards Prime

I found this keyboard on ebay today: http://www.ebay.com/itm/IBM-1395665-Mechanical-Model-M-Clicky-Keyboard-RJ45-Connector-/111605149447?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item19fc2f6f07 Since it uses an RJ45 connector, I don't think a modern computer can connect to it without drivers, but then again I've never tested it out. Nevertheless, I really want to buy one and try it. It is a mechanical keyboard with clicky keys, and the vendor says that it is in usable condition, but it would still be a frivolous buy. Anyways, it has a reset key where the control key should be, and I don't think it would relay the same signal as control when pressed. Still interesting insight into the past, though. Here are some pictures.

So... a Cloud-Storage focused HDD with it's own built-in OS, eliminating the need for [possibly] cumbersome NAS setups. Whether it will out-perform a similarly-priced NAS will remain to be seen though. http://www.kitguru.net/components/hard-drives/anton-shilov/seagate-introduces-kinetic-hdds-with-ethernet-interface/
