As I've learned from experience! Thanks for the help,guys. Now for the million dollar question; why does it introduce errors?<div>:-)~MIKE~(-:<br>

It does matter the order. What you were taught would introduce all forms of errors.<br>
<br>
in the connector from left to right with the copper contacts and the cable crimp facing you...<br>
<br>
B Standard (Most commonly used)<br>
Pin 1: orange white<br>
Pin 2: orange<br>
Pin 3: green white<br>
Pin 4: blue<br>
Pin 5: blue white<br>
Pin 6: green<br>
Pin 7: brown white<br>
Pin 8: brown<br>
<br>
A Standard<br>
Pin 1: green white<br>
Pin 2: green<br>
Pin 3: orange white<br>
Pin 4: blue<br>
Pin 5: blue white<br>
Pin 6: orange<br>
Pin 7: brown white<br>
Pin 8: brown<br>
<br>
To make a standard cable, both cables sides should be the same. To make a crossover cable, you crimp one side A and the other side B. You will also find differences in cable that will cause issues with some cable ends. Never strip the insulation off of the conductors and make sure that you have cable insulation inside the retaining crimp of the connector to relieve strain on the cable.<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>

so then (my cables are stripe, solid) the proper way to do it is:<br>
<br>
stripe orange,orange<br>
stripe green,blue<br>
stripe blue,green<br>
stripe brown,brown<br>
<br>
I was taught,<br>
<br>
blue, stripe blue<br>
green, stripe orange<br>
orange, stripe green<br>
brown, stripe brown<br>
