HI, Thank you all for your responses. You all have been very helpful.
Robert and Able were right in that I may have damaged the RJ45
receptacles by not using the right tool. Once I was sure I had the
wiring correct, I went around and made sure each wire was pushed into
the wedge. On one end I had to start over by cutting the end of the
cable and striiping off the outter insulation.

For right now the connection seems good, in fact I'm writing this
response from my laptop. But I will definately want to replace those
jacks soon, and next time I will make sure I use a a punchdown tool.

Thanks everyone!!
