I have 2 cat 5 cables that run from the kitchen to my patch panel.
The cables came loose from a window frame and got steached when somebody opened a window.
I cut off the first 12 feet of the cables, including the bad bit and fiited new between the socket in the kitchen and a pair of krone style joiners which connect to the original wires
I have a cat5 tester and almost had it ready to role but I' have three wires that are not connected.
I have re-made the joints at the joiners and and the sockets a couple of times but still cant find the break. Ive also punched down all the Krone fittings
Is there a tecnique to trace the break to the original or new wiring.
I dont fancy putting RJ45's on the old wires as its a bit brittle and under the eaves
All i,ve got is a multimeter.
Help and direction appreciated
