Re: Vista not compatible with router?
rebel_son,
Are we talking about CAT5 twisted pair Ethernet wire? If so splicing is a "no-no" as it messes up the "twisting" which is how these cables shield themselves (opposing magnetic fields). Also CAT5 runs shouldn't exceed 100 meters.
Are you using 10BaseT or 100BaseT? A questionable cable might work on 10BaseT but fail on 100BaseT. I would replace the cable with a new one without splices.
