Network jack repair

Recommended Posts

Last season I broke network jacks on three controllers.   Which meant I could not daisy chain them and it was brutal figuring out how to split my controllers across networks with the broken ones on the end. 

LOR provided replacement jacks to get me started.  This completely unprofessional video is my learn as you go repair adventure.

Get an RJ45 splitter from Amazon or wherever. NOT a switch. Keep the dongle length short. Make sure that all 8 wires are connected.

Two different types of these splitters were tried and neither of them worked for me.  By far the easier solution.    I may order one just to have on hand for the next unexpected jack break.
