We also used a tool to test the throughput and stuff.&nbsp; I forget the name but they very expensive.

cable testers

Your on the right track. A little broad though. They were more than cable testers. I&#39;d have to bring out my old netcad book to see exactly what their called in a literal sense.

just searched google, they&#39;re called ethernet cable testers.

Wow two complete morons

Stay away from google when it comes to subjects you know nothing about.

Drumrollllllllllllllllllllll. Their called MULTIMETERS

oh that is what ur talking about? i have a multimeter.

You have a multimeter? Ok. [/b][/quote]
i do, i had a thread about it a while ago. i didnt know what it was, an electrician guy left it at my grandmas house, so she gave me it. its kinda old, but it works fine...its got more selections than the one you have in ur post...

The one in the picture is a Fluke. They are the biggest distributer of multimeters worldwide. They make all diffrent kinds, various models.

Also If I were you and you don&#39;t need that multimeter you should sell it to a pawn shop or something. Good ones (especially Fluke&#39;s) are worth a bit.

Do you actually know how to use it?

[sparsely]

good ones may be worth a bit, but you can have a Radio Shack mulitmeter for about 5&#036;.

and yeah...the testers that ROSSCO posted were the ones I was referring to.

*edit: sorry....&#036;15

yes i do...

the mode it is in in that picture tells me how much loss you get through the wire you are testing. If you put the ends together directly it beeps and displays 0 on the screen. but if there is loss it will beep less loud or not at all, and the number will be .xxx to show how much was lost. in the pic it says 1 becasue there is no electricity getting from the red to black...

or i can turn it clockwise to where it says &#39;V&#39; and pput it to any of the numbers (closest without going under is best) to test teh voltage of a line.

havent quite figured teh rest out yet, but what i know is all i need for now.
