| 346733 | 2005-04-20 22:00:00 | If you notice the posts, you will find the emphasis on keeping coloured pairs together. The difference between the two standards is that the orange and green pairs are swapped, the "pairing" positions are still the same. I would re-check your connections, as these are usually the weak point in an install. The router will be using 2 pair , one for transmitting data, the other for receiving data. Just one of those 4 wires are not connected correctly, and it will not work. If you get stuck, I have a tester you could borrow. |
