I'm looking to hardwire two home LANs. What brand / style of crimpers and
rj-45 connectors seems to work the best? I'll be going through walls, so
wall
plates will also be used.
Thanks

I bought a cheapie 'kit' from ComputerGeeks... it included a few miles
of cat5 cable, the crimpers, a tester and a packet of rj-45 connectors.
I made cables for a four unit LAN and it works beautifully but if I
knew then what I know now, I would have bought ready made cables!
