| Unstable Connections On Your Own Cables | December 1, 2004 @ 2:42am | If you're creating your own Cat5 network cables, to save money or to make running them over longer or more difficult stretches easier, be very careful to create them with the correct wiring scheme. Cables that work fine at 10Mbps may cause huge headaches at 100Mbps because of incorrect ordering of the twisted pairs.
Be sure to create your cables as follows:

For straight-through cables (those connecting computers to hubs/switches/routers), use the same on both ends. For cross-wired cables (those connecting two computers directly together), make one end like the diagram below:
