I thought I did it correctly.... I mean the modem is
lights when I plug the new cable in but my brother
tells me that he still isn't connected and his box
(windows) won't ping google. You just need to make
the pairs alike on each end, right? I answered that
question by looking at a known good cable. I just
replaced the rj45s and same thing. I just restarted
the ms box and after it started the front network
computer icons lit up. Then I tried to renew the IP
but it failed. Then I left and came back to the
computer and there was a bubble message that said it
was connected but still couldn't get any pages to
load. Then I disabled the connection and reenabled
and it said it connected. What's going on?<br clear="all">

No, Just crimp it the conductors on the
RJ45 jack will pierce the insulation.
If you have stripped it, it will
probably short inside the plug.<br>

I feel retarded..... I can't
remember if you are supposed to
strip cat 5<br>
to the copper before you crimp it.
I'm thinking no but I need to make
sure.<br>
