    Looking for some Networking/LAN help

    Anyone here have the tools to setup cat5 cables with RJ-45 connectors? I am moving into a new house and need to change wall jacks and connectors on the cat-5e cabling they ran for phone. Should be pretty easy since everything is ran into one spot then ran up to each room.

      If thats the case its a matter or re crimping the ends to the switch/router and then re doing the face plates.

      Not difficult.
      Look up the Pin out config, buy your self a $15 kit from home depot and do it up. Its actually quite easy.

                Thanks joe and everyone else. I just assumed the tools would be more then 15 bucks. Been several years since I built ethernet cables.

                  ok, so it might cost like $30.

                  But seriously, easy to do.

                    30 is still cheaper then providing beer and gas money for someone to help out that has the tools,

                        when you wire them up, don't cross the streams. IT would be bad.

                          The pinout jacks are easy to do - I did our entire house before I took the networking class in college There are a ton of guides out there to do it -take your time and it will turn out great, just don't run the lines parallel to power, you can cross it, but keep that to a minimum.

                            The tough part is keeping the wires in place/order when you're inserting them into the RJ-45 plugs. It just takes patience, is all.
                            When we got to my place, I already had a candle burning. It was by "Glade", which I think you pronounce like the singer Sade, because it is an exotic candle that smells just like real pine.

                              Yeah - that takes a little skill, the wall plates require yet another tool to install those as well, but that is fairly simple as well.
