@David Bombal, don't lag behind, stick on some eyelashes and tell us about red team ;) Kidding! You both are my networking heroes! I learned a tonne from you two
After making thousands of patch cables back in the days I still watched this video. RJ45, fm45 even some m12s. You make such an essential, but boring topic so interesting. Great show man.
By far the most wholesome tech teaching vid on yt. Why did this not go viral? You're a great dad AND a great teacher! The energy you're presenting this with is something to strive for!
I started at 16 too with just dealing with my home wifi and now I am working with servers, automation and much more. (I am 20 now by the way and starting my college)
I been working in it for 3 years now in Argentina and your videos made me recover my eagerness for learning. Your way for explaining is fun and different. Thank you very much!!! :)
You are incredibly and insanely gifted in teaching. Your style is so natural, funny, engaging, captivating. I was totally captivated with this CAT5 video and all your other videos. Lovely to see your kids!!
I'm studying for CCNA for about 3 months and never got across this channel, it's like the best TH-cam entertainment content for IT. It shows how this job can be fun, which makes me want to pass the exam even more. Thank you so much.
Learning this is super important especially when working from home, you can run the cable from your router in one room into a room on the other side of you house to where your computer is so you have a more reliable connection while working from home.
This guy is funny but he's also smart keeping it simple. And the fact that he taught his daughters and use them in the video I found to be pretty entertaining and just high five dad:-)
Now I know why this channel has almost 2 million subscribers. You are gifted to teach, explain complex scenario and simplify it.Your channel has broader my knowledge as a developer getting his hands wet in networking. Thanks you NetworkChuck for the knowledge and time taken in making these videos. You always seem to be having fun while impacting millions of life and giving us hope to do better. Millions of thanks.
Should probably go full regalia. Put on the dress and make sure that your he/she/they/them know how to "make it rain" at drag queen story hour. This is what passes for fathers nowadays. The West is dooomed!
100% Respect. I went on a hunting trip with the boys, took my boots off and had bright pink toenails. And one of the other guys goes "daughters... respect."
I'm a student(more like an apprentice) in a tech company in Germany and I really have to thank you. More than one time you saved me with your fantastic ability to share knowledge in a fun way. It's so easy to understand complex subjects with someone so hooked up by this stuff. You saved literally days of studying just by your ccna course.
Back in the 90's I made all the cables for my company as I was the only network guy for my hospital. One day, I was asked to go help a network administrator from a vendor from one of the big biotechnology firms. He was installing a piece of brain surgery equipment and he needed a crossover cable. I till his cable, cut the end off and made it for him. He was AMAZED. I told my boss that he was an admin and didn't know how to make one. My boss didn't think a network administrator should know how either. I disagree. Good work with your daughters. I just retired last year.
Chuck, thanks for this! I got my 9 and almost 11 year old children involved in this one to learn. At least one was able to make it all the way through to a completed cable :)
@NetworkChuck Got my CCNA last year because of you and @David Bombal, and @Keeping IT Simple (Jeremy Cioara)! I work as an IT Engineer at a great company now and I'm loving it! Been following you and everyone else for years and I appreciate your inspirations and honest videos!
I'm so glad I found your channel Chuck. They way you make things fun to learn and understanding of things make it all that much better to get into. It's hard to find good channels covering stuff like this and you make beautiful content.
Dude Chuck, you have no idea how relieving it was to hear you say at 31:55 that you are colorblind. I’m red/green colorblind and it’s always been a challenge for me when colors come into the picture! I’ve been nervous that it would cause trouble for me getting into Networking, but this was a major confidence boost. Big thank you man!
this video was/is phenomenal. Direct precise not to mention entertaining. Was tired of fighting with provider over inferior wifi extenders. ran a cable 150 ' over the roof to garage cant thank you enough. u da man
dude i love how passionate you are for IT, i just started learning from google, youtube and forums but i thinks im getting there, but your explanations are just magic
Great video, really well explained. I only want to say that the "grandma hair" thread is there for a reason. The recommended approach is to score the outside of the cable and strip it far enough to expose the thread, then pull that thread to split the sheath. You can just cut off the copper wires where you first scored them and use the freshly exposed wires for the actual connection. The reason for doing this is just in case you nicked the internal wires when you first scored it. When you split the sheath using the thread, the fresh wires are guaranteed to be intact. It also has the benefit that you don't have to keep flexing the cable to split the sheath, which for solid core installation cable, causes cable fatigue. Not all cables have the thread, but where it does, that's what it is for. I hope that helps someone.
Great vid, I know many many 'IT engineers' who don't know their correct coloured pin outs still. I once did a network install for a client who decided to save themselves money by getting their own staff to do the cabling. They were ok in installing the sockets but got the patch leads wrong. Called me back in to complain their pcs were not working correctly. I checked their work and they had paired up the patch leads incorrectly. So it cost them money in the end to get me back in and point out the obvious. Lesson learned!! Ha-ha!
Best 43 minutes ever spent. Crazy plus so perfect demonstration and content. Really love your videos. This one is just on the Top. I laughed a lot in between, thanks to you man
Thanks Chuck! You're awesome and your fam is awesome! I'm glad you went through where it started with CAT 3/10BASE-T, it actually helped me with remembering the order, since 1,2,3, & 6 stay the same colours (yes coloUrs, eh :P). You explain things really well, and that was smart to paint your nails with your girls. Can't wait to continue this playlist, and learn more networking. God bless!
I'm so glad I can run off 568B color codes in my head without a second thought. I did all this last year making cable :) it took me a bit to learn too. If your fingers are soft you'll get the similar guitar callouses on your fingers if you do it enough in a day. There was a time when me and another person were doing security cameras and bought RJ-45 heads that passed through the end of the head which was wonderful for color verification, but needed a tool to cut the exact length for the head to work properly. We tried crimping with a normal tool and realized how out of luck we were in doing so. We got tools that could do both after that. Make sure you buy the right crimp ends for your tools, folks! :)
Learned how to make Ethernet cables and terminate fiber cables while in the US Navy so many years ago....brings back some memories! keep up the great work, Chuck!!
Love you Chuck, you helped me with my journey with ethical hacking and I always think before I type and “never hack someone or use kali tools on anyone unless you have permission”
Fantastic Video. Well presented. Love the fact that Dad is willing to entertain the kids with fingernail polish. Can't wait to start my rewiring job with custom-length cables, as I hate the mess under my desk.
I love that you let your girls paint your nails. my daughter that when she was little too. I was also her makeup canvas and for fake tattoos. The greatest way to spend time with your kids.
Your videos are incredible. I love that you include you young kids to make it seem like me, a 31yo adult, can understand it too! I have been in IT for 10 years, hardware and software. This has been so much help in filling in those blank puzzle pieces to everything I have learned in my career so far. Thanks you so much for putting such amazing effort into teaching the world the IOT of things.
I recently started studying for my CCNA after 6-7 years of being a level 1 installer and home theater/residential/small business cabling and installation. If you guys make these often, get the pass through fittings and the Kline crimpers with the blade that cuts the excess. It’ll save you so much time getting your lengths right and verify the colors 😊🤘🏻
Wow, great job on those, and I love how you presented this! My attempts were only partially successful until I started using passthrough heads. Now I'm a passthrough evangelist! ;-) You pull the wires all the way through, check they are still in the right order and - pro tip - twist the ends before crimping so when it cuts off the excess the eight wires all stay together instead of flying off in all directions. Works fine every time. :-D
Also, as I understand it, the pass through heads are the only way you can make a Cat 6 cable that will pass certification. My daughter was making cables in her high school A+ cert class using the older heads. My son and I introduced her to pass through heads.
I used to be an electrician in the UK and I found for me a red filter (plastic) would help me distinguish the different color cables (been colorblind). When your wiring up equipment and have 16 or more of color coded cables it was a real challenge to do. The red filter changed my life for doing this
I've been into computers since I was little and no one interest me in making my own ethernet cable. I tried to watch other tutorials but it bored me so I never even tried to make one and only you do make it more interesting and exciting. Planning to make my first cable. Keep it more coming dude. Thanks!
It was the best idea ever to learn the osi layers. I have just started my it training and am a complete novice in actual IT-ing. Im very well versed with computers and how to optimaly set them up and use them for gaming and daily use. But there are lots of things i didnt know. And all of them interconnect with the 7 osi layer i completely learned with important protocols and examples. It really pays off to find so many important key words and shortcuts in all your videos that all make it easy to understand witht the OSI layer. You are literally my at home it training.!!!!!!
I watched as brings back memories of when i did my CCNA 11 years ago I did notice you are colour blind I am legally blind but I build/repair pc's and laptops, code and of course networking Cheers I haven't made a cable for a while and I do need to get more ethernet cables I now am thinking just buying a big roll and make custom cables anytime I want thanks for the refresh :)
I made a cross over cable in 1995 to connect two desktops together using alta vista as the search engine. I've mad lots since then I don't anymore but I went through a couple of crimpers. This is a skill that I don't enjoy (the make the other side stuff was gold) but am glad that I have just in case i ever need to make a custom cable. This was a fantastic explanation which I found fascinating because I haven't done it in a long time. i'm even going "it's rx it's rx" but that was the plan all along. the augmented reality type thing really made it easy to understand.
You are a great teacher chuck. Networking has always fascinated me because I love connecting things. However many people might find the subject to be boring. I love how you showed network connectivity from the perspective of playing Call of Duty online. I got my CCNA a few moons ago and I am now looking to work towards my CCNP security. Also you are a great father bro. I love the way you are brining up your girls. Keep focused brother!
Talk about a throwback! Chuck, I'm "newish" to your channel but not new to networking apparently. We are the same age and I took Cisco 1 in an ROP class in highschool, let me tell you, I've NEVER forgotten my 568B... And although I'm not doing it professionally, I've done my fair share of eth drops and runs 😂. Love everything you do! Even though I'm 3 years late to this one.
For straightening the wires, it’s much faster if you do it against the outside edge of your scissors. It’s way faster and a lot easier on your fingers. My son, whomI taught cable making to about 15 years ago (he’s 27 now), learned it from his boss at the security company he works for. He shared it with me about a month ago. It’s a game changer.
I totally didn't think I was going to watch this whole video from start to finish, oh how wrong I was. it was informative, entertaining and very wholesome. Nice going, Chuck!! Thanks for this series of videos, I'm really learning a tonne!
I like that you’re teaching your girls so much about this even though this current technology will most likely be outdated when they’re older. BUT, it’ll make them better because they have the knowledge of the outdated tech as a background to build their knowledge. I’m an auto tech by trade so I’m not in this field, but I’m learning and like doing this as a hobby and I’m glad my dad taught me everything he knew and had me build my own computer as a child in the mid 90’s. I think I was navigating a Linux command terminal at 6 years old lol

I'm getting ready to make ethernet cables (for the first time) to upgrade my home network. This video (along with many others) have been super helpful. Thanks for the amazing content, and keep up the good work.
Amazing, you star! You’ve solved my connection issues today. My internet died and couldn’t come back online, but only in one room. I replaced the 10m cable with Cat6 8-core UTP and now I have 280mbps on my desktop that had 80mbps originally. Success,
Glad you focused on using the standard ethernet end clips because it forces people to go slowly during the learning process. Once they have mastered doing it the hard way, then when they start making cables using ethernet clips that have 8 individual wire holes, it makes the process so much easier and faster.
I can't thank you enough for your amazing and brilliant videos!!! It's like magic. You turn things, which can be really boring and hard to understand magically easy, simple and logical. I see and feel your love and passion about Networking and Tech in every single episode, which inspires me a lot. And thank your lovely daughters for helping me to memorize the color order. How smart they are!!! I am now going to paint my nails. :)
Dude the algorithm just works, found this channel through it and I wanted to watch something fresh/new (techtuber installing 3080ti for their uncle who just facebook and watch news is getting on my nerves) and it didn't disappoint
This is great stuff. I came from token ring and 10base-2 (I know, I’m old) but I ran cat5e in my house and had to learn it. That blue wire was the key for me in remembering it. I sang this to myself too many times during my exams…””White-Orange Orange … White-Green Blue … Blue-White Green … Brown-White Brown … La la la.” Shut up, I’m old. ;-)
Finally! Finally I got a good description of what I am doing in Cisco Packet Tracer all the time while choosing cables (crossover or straight through)! Thanks a lot!
For anyone having trouble getting the wires straight enough. If you make them about 3-4 inches long. Then use a needle nose to gentle tug on them. It will get them straight. Then pick a good spot to cut and cut it while keeping it all tight. Then just slide them into the connector.

I watched as brings back memories of when i did my CCNA 11 years ago I did notice you are colour blind I am legally blind but I build/repair pc's and laptops, code and of course networking Cheers I haven't made a cable for a while and I do need to get more ethernet cables I now am thinking just buying a big roll and make custom cables anytime I want thanks for the refresh :)
Now everytime they find scissors they'll be cutting cables everywhere
Minimum CAT6 please
Yeah, but then I’ll make them fix it :)
@@NetworkChuck chuck why have u painted ur nails. It's not looking good at all.
@@arshidshafi378 no space for haters on this channel
@@arshidshafi378 a fun way to teach his daughters which cable go's where... I agree though could of used a different method.
@@Arfadezz matter of opinion perhaps??? a guy isn't supposed to paint his nails... it's just a big nono
Dude you have a gift man. You're actually learning people valuable knowledge in a way no one has ever been able to deliver it to my brain...
0:14 noobs after entering the IT field
hahahaha yes
thats how i feel one year in bahahaha
I made a cross over cable in 1995 to connect two desktops together using alta vista as the search engine. I've mad lots since then I don't anymore but I went through a couple of crimpers. This is a skill that I don't enjoy (the make the other side stuff was gold) but am glad that I have just in case i ever need to make a custom cable. This was a fantastic explanation which I found fascinating because I haven't done it in a long time. i'm even going "it's rx it's rx" but that was the plan all along. the augmented reality type thing really made it easy to understand.
2:23 "and do tha..." *internet goes out*
You are a great teacher chuck. Networking has always fascinated me because I love connecting things. However many people might find the subject to be boring. I love how you showed network connectivity from the perspective of playing Call of Duty online. I got my CCNA a few moons ago and I am now looking to work towards my CCNP security. Also you are a great father bro. I love the way you are brining up your girls. Keep focused brother!
they literally taught this in my school, but still I never do this ethernet cable making
which school tho?
Whoa ! Do you study at google
I knew nothing about and Ethernet cable and now I just made my first one. You’re awesome dude! Thank you so much!
Love from India 🇮🇳
Hi!
You're a super Tech Pro. With kids in the demo takes it to a much higher level. Superb Educ
Oh boy, you just melted my heart! I love kids, they are just so adorable. Love from Pakistan BTW 🇵🇰❤️😍
Im 13 and ive been watching hours and hours of your videos and ive learning a SO MUCH of things from your videos, I ❤ UR VIDEOS.
Love your videos man, keep it up.
Thanks Jake!
love that you're bonding with your girls at the same time! Awesome father
That look on Chloe's face, like you just threw a dead rat on the table.😂
Check out gwin_tech on Instagram he’s reliable and really good hacker he’s the best
man you are blessed with 5 daughters that's a blessing right there all for you
Those fancy nails of yours really suit your keyboard by the way.
The best video ever. I crimp cables for 20 years but I watched just for the fun of seeing the girl's reaction. So cute!

Your a good father.
Kids should learn something, anything that is useful in life.👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Me: Has made dozens of successful ethernet cables with the exact same kit
Also me: Hmmmm
Talk about a throwback! Chuck, I'm "newish" to your channel but not new to networking apparently. We are the same age and I took Cisco 1 in an ROP class in highschool, let me tell you, I've NEVER forgotten my 568B... And although I'm not doing it professionally, I've done my fair share of eth drops and runs 😂. Love everything you do! Even though I'm 3 years late to this one.
You are such a cruel, cruel parent. If you force them to make fiber cables I’m calling child services j/k 🤣🤣
I wish my parents made me make cables as a kid lol
For straightening the wires, it’s much faster if you do it against the outside edge of your scissors. It’s way faster and a lot easier on your fingers. My son, whomI taught cable making to about 15 years ago (he’s 27 now), learned it from his boss at the security company he works for. He shared it with me about a month ago. It’s a game changer.
No 26th 😆 Lots of love from India 🇮🇳 chuck 🤩❤ I follow ur content and want to become hacker
I totally didn't think I was going to watch this whole video from start to finish, oh how wrong I was. it was informative, entertaining and very wholesome. Nice going, Chuck!! Thanks for this series of videos, I'm really learning a tonne!
sounds interesting.... I did not even know that how you could make any lol
u think they drop from the heavens, boy?
@@GLpietro14 nah, Just didn't know how to make any lol
Most people don’t, but I’m trying to change that :)
@@GLpietro14 mainly because I am not doing the CCNA cource, but I still watch other videos..
@@NetworkChuck I do appreciate what you are doing. Keep up the work!
I like that you’re teaching your girls so much about this even though this current technology will most likely be outdated when they’re older. BUT, it’ll make them better because they have the knowledge of the outdated tech as a background to build their knowledge. I’m an auto tech by trade so I’m not in this field, but I’m learning and like doing this as a hobby and I’m glad my dad taught me everything he knew and had me build my own computer as a child in the mid 90’s. I think I was navigating a Linux command terminal at 6 years old lol

I love the way you got your daughters to learn the 568-B wiring layout by getting your nails done!
*Kids say "mommy why does daddy paint his nails 😐"*
Is it cuz his nails are damaged or what?
I'm learning this when I am doing an internship at a small IT company. I'm excited to watch you video sir
Can I paint my nails like that when i take the CCNA
I'm getting ready to make ethernet cables (for the first time) to upgrade my home network. This video (along with many others) have been super helpful. Thanks for the amazing content, and keep up the good work.
Amazing, you star! You’ve solved my connection issues today. My internet died and couldn’t come back online, but only in one room. I replaced the 10m cable with Cat6 8-core UTP and now I have 280mbps on my desktop that had 80mbps originally. Success,
Glad you focused on using the standard ethernet end clips because it forces people to go slowly during the learning process. Once they have mastered doing it the hard way, then when they start making cables using ethernet clips that have 8 individual wire holes, it makes the process so much easier and faster.
I can't thank you enough for your amazing and brilliant videos!!! It's like magic. You turn things, which can be really boring and hard to understand magically easy, simple and logical. I see and feel your love and passion about Networking and Tech in every single episode, which inspires me a lot. And thank your lovely daughters for helping me to memorize the color order. How smart they are!!! I am now going to paint my nails. :)
Dude the algorithm just works, found this channel through it and I wanted to watch something fresh/new (techtuber installing 3080ti for their uncle who just facebook and watch news is getting on my nerves) and it didn't disappoint
the way they work by changing the voltages.....blowed my mind!!
This is great stuff. I came from token ring and 10base-2 (I know, I’m old) but I ran cat5e in my house and had to learn it. That blue wire was the key for me in remembering it. I sang this to myself too many times during my exams…””White-Orange Orange … White-Green Blue … Blue-White Green … Brown-White Brown … La la la.” Shut up, I’m old. ;-)
I love that you share your knowledge with your kids! That is so empowering!
Finally! Finally I got a good description of what I am doing in Cisco Packet Tracer all the time while choosing cables (crossover or straight through)! Thanks a lot!
Not often you see a video that is both very educational and surprisingly wholesome
Best video ever, we are expecting a boy over here and seeing your daughters make me so happy.
For anyone having trouble getting the wires straight enough. If you make them about 3-4 inches long. Then use a needle nose to gentle tug on them. It will get them straight. Then pick a good spot to cut and cut it while keeping it all tight. Then just slide them into the connector.
Already learned how to do that in college. I watch your videos to learn how to be a father and a nerd at the same time when I have kids.
