Wait till you put a packet sniffer on it and start seeing things like your local electricity company's meters on the/your network. Network doesn't stop at your property line any more with those!

I only do data cabling for myself and friends (very important to not let work know that I can do it), and I only use tool-less keystone jacks now. I will never punch down or crimp a connector again.

I find myself wondering if the other end is the same order or if he's managed to get it differently wrong enough there to work if you patch everything with crossover cables instead of regular cables.
