    Ethernet only uses 4 of the 8 wires.

    If one of the 4 used wires was missing it would never connect. If one of the 4 unused wires was missing it would make no difference whatsoever.

    Political correctness is based on the principle that it's possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.

    linksys has known problems. try upgrading the firmware to the latest, or downgrade to 1.45 version. go to the broadband reports forum, and get the latest beta firmware for the router. thats what i had to do.
