You should pull the covers and check the wiring. There are two basic
standards TIA/EIA-568-A and TIA/EIA-568-B and the wiring is slightly
different, pairs 3 and 4 are reveresed, the B standard is generally more
common.
B is from left to right with the clip on the bottom:
1 orange white
2 orange
3 green white
4 blue
5 blue white
6 green
7 brown white
8 brown
The A standard has 1,2 and 3,6 reveresed.

I just moved into a new house, and it is partially wired for networking.
It has network drops at various points through the house, and the wires
lead to the basement. However, the ends in the basement have not been
terminated. If I want to hook these into a hub, would I connect the RJ45
clips as a straight through connection, or as a cross over?
Straight through I believe, if the upstairs ends are terminated to RJ45s or
RJ45 wall sockets you will of course need to find out which version they are
wired to.
I have a large box of Cat 5 and RJ45s sitting around also some double wall
sockets etc. let me know before Wednesday if you want anything.
