I use the B setup. I always thought you were supposed the B setup for the straight through cables and one end A and the other B for a cross over cable.
My problem is with the connections. I clip the wires down and from what I understand when you get a click and the excess wire falls off you have your connection. I have a little circuit tester which tests each pair in sequence. 1&2, 3&6, 4&5, and 7&8. If the little lights come on in sequence the cable is good. If they are not in sequence its wired wrong. If one or more of the lights doesn't come on there is not connection. My problem is the most I can get is three of the pairs. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. The wall connectors are a lot harder to get to work than male connectors. I've gone through an entire package of ten of these connectors and I can't get any of them to work. -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
