    I posted this I'n the net comms forunm but I'm pretty stupid and confused so I'm not sure where what g oes. If this is the wrong forum for it feel free to hit me in the head.. it wont do much damage though,.

    I'm quite tired, foreign and don't really know of what I'm trying to achieve is possible or quite two to do it... Figured I'd just record quick little video with problem and one of you geniuses can figure out if this is possible. I did read .. or skim somewhere (Ih ave upc 120meg and technicolor 7200 router). is that it should be possible to use two ethernet cables on one port and they'll just be able to do 100meg but I dont mind the extra 20.

    sorry for the jumbled post but AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH. I thought It'd be easy cause I could crimp.



    sec tying to get the bloo.. url right

    i can take some photos of these... the ethernet cables confused me at first..cause they're not alll candy cane coloured. thought it was a scam but.. if you figure out the solution for this terrible explanation of my little problem then you are a super genius. godspeed.

    It's easy enough when you know a few things :

    - the wires are in pairs twisted together <blue & blue/white> <green & green/white >

    - to get 100MB you only need 2 pairs

    - only pins 1,2,3 and 6 are needed for 100MB


    - 1 & 2 are a "pair" , 3 & 6 are a "pair"


    If your sockets are colour coded do it this way :
    socket 1 :

    green & green/white markings
    green & green/white pair of wires

    orange & orange/white markings
    orange & orange/white pair of wires
    socket 2

    green & green/white markings
    blue & blue/white pairof wires

    green & green/white markings
    brown & brown/white pair of wires


    like this - your socket may be different
