Hi,

I really need someone's help. I ran cat5e to 3 rooms in my house from my office. I am using Lagrand Cat5e ports in all three rooms which I've wired as the B wiring option and I've terminated the cat5e cables in my office with the same B wiring option and presumably I wired the ends correctly as when I plugged an ethernet cable into the jacks downstairs and used my cat5e tester and all the wiring came up as ok/green. I then plugged all the ends into my Netgear GS605 switch and then plugged an ethernet cable that came with my Netgear N600 Cable Modem/Router from the router into the switch.

The desktop computer is plugged directly into the router and works fine but my TV plugged into the jack is having problems connecting to the internet and when it does it's super slow and then drops. Same with a blurry player in the other room. I want to put another switch downstairs that is plugged into the downstairs jack.

What have I done wrong with the wiring. It's driving me insane. Please help.
