@Jan: in the document linked by Paul (http://www.maximintegrated.com/en/app-notes/index.mvp/id/148) they start by saying "The scope of this document is limited to 1-Wire networks that use Category 5, twisted-pair copper wire and have 5V bus power supplied by the master" So i guessed that this was the preferred cable... (in addition, hobbyboards also talk about this type of cable and connectors) Normally when I crimp the rj45 connector, normaaly it is secured with the piece of plastic. But it's a great tip if i run into some errors. I am getting some improvement by using 7/8 as gnd (i can succesfully connect a sensor at the end of the long wire, but not yet the actual sensors (they have their own cat5e cable of 8m). So still trying ;-)
