I don’t know why my connection wouldn’t work earlier, but it works now! I had my cable crimped at the closest suking tindahan, i.e. Villman, and it worked! I won’t go into the technical details, but basically, they used one standard for wiring (568-A) while I used another (568-B). I don’t know why their wiring worked while mine didn’t, but I’m not complaining anymore. Now, I just have to worry about threading the wire from my room to the study all over again… or at least getting somebody to do it.

So now I say that technology doesn’t suck… but the weather does. It just rained. On most days, I love the rain. Today, however, the rain makes getting to roof (and staying there) quite a bit more difficult. This means that I have to wait until tomorrow (or maybe later) to get my room wired. Oh well…
