you will need a crossover cable if you are going from computer to computer,
cat 5 if you have hub. i know they make a tester for cat5 cables. could
use a ohm meter but the conections are kinda small. hope that helps.

Subject: [juneau-lug] CAT5 cable..
I'm trying to set up a Win98 box to access the internet
through my Linux box. I believe I have all software settings
correct but cannot ping either box from the other and no
lights show on either box's network card. They are connected
with a straight-through CAT5 cable. Should I be using
cross-over? Also could someone point me to some info on
testing CAT5 cable? Can it be tested with a common
multi-tester?
