But maybe that's to be expected because that's also what happens when I plug in my other 2 pair 100Mbps RJ45 loopback. The other weird thing is that 1Gbps switch that's 100Mbps capable doesn't detect this at least as 100Mbps (I could live with it not showing up as 1Gig). I also tried several switches, and it's always the same: 100Mbps lights up, 1Gbps doesn't. I'm not new to crimping cables either, so I'm 99% sure I succeeded in crimping it well. I triple checked my pinout and I just can't get it to work. The obvious problem could be that I crimped the cable wrong, but now I'm on the 3rd one and I get exactly same frustrating results. 100 Mbps port on 100 Mbps switch lights up no problem.When I plug it into a 1Gbps port on 100/1G switch the port does not light up.
