How to make Network Cables
Do I need a permit to run Cat 6 wire?
The company I work for just built a new building and Im running the network wire (Cat6) and I need to know if I need a permit to do it. I figured saying I’m not an outside contractor I shouldn’t and even when I was in school learning how to run wire they never mentioned anything about permits (it was a crappy school though so that might not mean anything lol). This is just the 1st time Ive ever heard needing permits for networking wiring. Any info from a professional would be great.
I live in Connecticut and the New Building is in Connecticut.
Also the contractor who built the building ran all the conduit and cut all the holes in the walls for our wires. So literally all I am doing is running the wire from the network closet to a pipe that runs through the wall to the wall jack and hooking the wires to the wall jacks and patch panel.

Gigabit Ethernet Speeds?
Hello,
I have a Belkin N1 Router with Gigabit Ethernet ports.
Plugged in to it, I have a HP Laptop with Gigabit Ethernet and the status of this network connection reports the speed of 1.0Gbps.
I also have a Western Digital WorldBook NAS (Network Attached Storage) with Gigabit Ethernet and the configuration page reports that its network connection is running at 1000Mbps.
All network cables are Cat5e.
Therefore I’m assuming I have everything set up correctly to make best use of Gigabit Ethernet.
My laptop is running Windows Vista Ultimate with SP1 (therefore, have the patch to resolve the well know network copying poor performance bug).
When moving or copying files between the laptop and NAS, the Move/Copy dialog box reports a transfer speed of around 4.5Mbps. My question is, is this normal?? It seems very poor and slow to me. A 700Mb file takes around 4 minutes to copy.
In comparison, transfer speeds wirelessly using 802.11g (54Mbps) is around 1-2Mbps, and USB 2.0 Flash Memory plugged into the laptop gives a transfer speed of a more nicer 12Mbps.
With thanks
Mark
