Question For Electrical Engineer Graduates

Does soldering CAT-5 internet cables or ethernet cables cause any kind of network quality bump?

i’ve recently lived in 2 different flats where the infrastructure was soldered and i’m suffering ping fluxes of 15-20 during online games which causes freeze frames.

@Nmagane

Yes, bad work like that will cause up to 40ms latency over the wire.

You could introduce a lot of impedance problems soldering CAT5 cables and not insulating them correctly

no league of legend for me i guess

what do u do in america if u find out ur internet cables are soldered and the wires built in the walls were done way too sloppy and short and they just soldered everything on either side

You go play games on Starbucks google WiFi

REALLY LIKE HOW SHES STICKING THE FIGURE OUT FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE PHONE BUT IT SHOWS UP ON THE CAMERA LOL

ROFL YEEE

If the wires are tightly twisted together under the solder it should be fine. Hard to tell by looking at them.
