[mdlug] Network Cable and Tools

[Duane Brown]

buy.com has had cat 5 cabling kits that come with wire, the ends and the 
tools including a wire tester. I don't remember how much it was but I 
know it was thrifty as I was going to buy it "just in case".

As a side note consider leaving extra length at each end in case the 
cable end needs to be redone, um, kids, the dog, the teenager with the 
vacuum cleaner, you never know what life will throw at you.
