It will show you what color wires to put where.

Just remember there is no magic to it. You have 2 wires for TX and 2
for RX. As long as the wires match on each end (pin 1 to pin 1, pin 2
to pin 2, etc.) it does not matter what color they are.

First off, you shouldn't need to strip the wires when putting them into
the jack,  The jacks are designed to cut through the shielding and make
a connection directly though the shielding.  In fact, I'll bet that the
connections are much more likely to corrode if you strip them first.

As for the color sequence.  They change a bit depending on what style of
jack you have and how much the wires twist inside the jack itself.  Just
go ahead and wire up the jack in the color order that the jack dictates
and it shouldn't matter if they are in different physical orders on the
back of the jack.

As for the Jack that shows yellow brown white red etc... It sounds like
you got a hold of an rj45 based telecom jack.  I would take that back
and get one that is made for networking.  You could probably get it to
work just fine if you can figure out the correct wiring order, but why
not do it right in the first place...

So I'm connecting my brothers computer to the internet . I ran the wire

dirty) and drilled a hole today and fed the cable through the hole. Then
I stripped the cable; first the blue pair, then the green pair, the.....
I'm sure you get the point. Anyways I'm all excited because now I'm
going to connect the wires to the jack, then I'll do the other side,
then my brother is in business! Except I sit down to connect the other
side when I see a nightmare: instead of blue-green-orange-brown wires
the colors of the wires are blue, orange, black, red, green, yellow,
brown, and white; each designated with a number: 1 to 8. Any idea how I
should wire these?
