you forgot the link but I guess it is the cable. I had a long enough
cable to just connect it without it looking pretty and it worked. I
don't know though. My connections are good (I think) so maybe it is
the cable itself. That is all I can think of.

okay, 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?

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.

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