But my WiFi is just fine! - Divisions by zero

Cables are fine until that stupid clip breaks off and every nudge unplugs the fucking cable ever so slightly that it doesn’t work but you can’t see it.
Get a crimp tool and a 50-pack of connectors. If one breaks, it takes all of 60 seconds to re-crimp the end and you’ll only lose about an inch of cable length.

Make sure to get pass-through RJ45 connectors.

It’s 10x easier to trim the excess after crimping, rather than getting the lengths spot on before.

I remember running out of those at work, & intentionally crushing the cheap-ass crimp-tool in my hand, just so I could finish up the next day with pass-through connectors & my Klein tool, rather than spend the next two hours re-terminating connectors that I ‘should have’ gotten exactly right the first time.
Dunno, I have no problems with regular RJ45 connectors.
