Any networking nerds? How should I test my ethernet cables?
#1
I've wired my home with cat 6a ethernet. It seems to be working well but I'd like to verify as best I can that I've been successful before putting all my tools away. I found doing a good old internet speed test to be a good way to push some data across the wires. Never saw any reported bad packets in network utility. Now I'm looking at my managed switch - TL-SG108PE - and its telling a different story. That said, I'm not sure if its anything worth worrying about. A couple of these look high. I suspect a couple of these might be worth investigating once I get devices settled into my panel so I can rule out physical stress on the cable - my current setup is rather precarious.
