I was reading this thread, and I had a thought (scary thing!, LOL), it
it possible that inside the conduit, there is a rough edge (maybe the
edge of a junction box if you are not using LBE's?) that scraped off
the outside covering and you now have exposed wires that you can not
see?. Perhaps the wires are exposed somewhere and a little bit of
moisture (even humidity) got inside the conduit and is causing the
errors?. It would really be a long shot, as this rough edge would have
to scrape off the shielding from both CAT5 cables, but I have seen
stranger things. I have also had problems in the past from bad
ballasts in flourescent lights. Even if they are a few feet away, they
make all sorts of strange things happen. Another place to look is bad
power supplies. I installed a radio at a customers home one time that
had a power supply. It made noise thru every computer speaker. As soon
as you unplugged the power supply, the noise went away. It also would
allow the radio to boot up, but the ethernet was just screwy,
sometimes passing packets, sometimes not. Good luck in your search!. Tim
I just repaired an install done while the walls were open; the
drywallers used a motor router to cut the junction box holes and went to
a GREAT deal of effort to nick the wires in multiple locations. Sadly, I
know these guys. ID10Tz. Oh well. I did not do the repair for free.
The idea of frayed wires is a very good one.
