what a noob the telco guy is....yuk



its FTP thats why its so fat.





comparison with normal utp















bought the wrong type of sockets really. should have bought the ones with possibility to pass the cable through holes in the panel, rather than around.

Re: House Lan Wiring

so anyway. the first one is downstairs where one computer is and their router. then one cable joins downstairs to upstairs where the second panel is and where all the rooms on that floor terminate. there i put a 3com gigabit 8 switch and also a wap54g.

i was having a hell of a problem trying to get the wap54g working connected to the wall socket in another room. like hours. then i got fed up and connected the laptop directly to the wall. the laptop was running vista and the lan connection was connected/disconnected/connected/disconnected. wierd. i guessed that there was some problem with the socket then unless that is some vista feature?

what they had done was connected another socket in that room to that socket. ugh. looks like they had not even tested it as only one pair of the other socket was working. whilst the first socket had all pairs ok.

wasted like 2-3 hours with that shit. wished i had a fluke network tester instead of my standard cheapo one.

You guessed right: this is mostly due to bad / intermittent contacts. Recheck all you sockets, pushing the cable well inside them.

I think there are more afforbable testers than Fluke ones while being as complete as possible: what's wrong with yours?

Re: House Lan Wiring

its just a cheapo that flashes through the pairs one at a time.
