i am wanting to run xbox and gamecube in node0 , but of course want the
controllers in the lounge!

i have purchased some extension leads, which gives me the 2 custom
connectors (ie a male to go in to the console and a female to plug the
handset in)

so, simple i thought, simply cut the extension lead in half, and stick an
rj45 connector on each cut end. this then gave me

(handset)-( Female-extension-RJ45 plug)-(RJ45 wallbox-patchpanel)-(RJ45
plug-male extension lead)-(console)

i have kept all of the colour arrangements of the 2 rj45 plugs the same,
which i am guessing keeps the pins all 'straight through'

is this correct, or as i suspect am i doing something really stupid ? (cos
it aint working!)

cheers
