Question : Problem: Crimping from a router to a wall jack
|
|
Good day Experts,
I'm at wits' end with this project. We're setting up wall jacks in the house, and I can't for the life of me seem to get it done right.
We want to connect a 4-port SMC BarricadeG wireless router to 4 wall jacks in different rooms.
I've followed the wiring guide on the faceplate of the wall jack, being:
W/BL - BL - W/O - O - W/G - G - WBr - Br
My problem is this:
If I crimp the other end (which will connect into the router) as a 568A connection, I get no transmission from the wall jack to the PC that I'm using to test.
If I crimp the router end following the guide as I typed above, I get Limited or No Connectivity.
What is the correct way of crimping the router end so that I have TX/RX from the wall jack to the computer?
The cable being used through the walls is UTP Solid ISO/IEC 11801 Cat 5e cable.

As an afterthought as a quick test try crimping a 568b, maybe your wall jack is treating 568b as straight through.
