I did make one short cable a week or so ago, but it doesn’t work. The longer ones I’ve made to pull through the house from my computer\/craft room where I have the router set up to the other points for internet in the house work great. I thought maybe the ends were messed up, so I cut them off and redid it all, so I just ended up wasting more and more ends … It must be the piece of cable.<\/p>\n
