00:00Ever tried wiring your own place for Ethernet?
00:03Bad crimps, mystery cables, connectors that just won't click.
00:07So I dug through the listings to find the top 5 network wiring tools for DIY installs and honestly,
00:13a couple of these prices genuinely surprised me.
00:16First up, the Ugreen RJ45 Crimper, this is the one I'd grab if I were only buying a single tool.
00:22It crimps, cuts, and strips, so Cat6 and even Cat7 cable isn't a problem,
00:27and the ratchet action gives you a clean, solid crimp every single time.
00:321980, a perfect 5-star rating across almost 5,000 sales, and it just works.
00:38Second, the Fnirsi LPM10A, and this is the troubleshooter's tool.
00:43It's a cable tester, wire tracer, and line finder in one, it'll measure cable length,
00:47check PO, and flash a port so you can figure out which jack in the wall you're actually plugged into.
00:53$49.99, rated 4.8, and worth it the first time you're chasing a mystery cable through drywall.
00:59Third, the Ampcom tester, and this is the value pick.
01:04$7.
01:05It checks continuity on Cat5e all the way through Cat7, handles RJ45 and RJ11 phone line,
01:12and tells you straight up whether your pinout is right before you start blaming the cable.
01:16Rated 4.9 with over 4,700 sold, everyone wiring a house should have one rattling around in the toolbox.
01:24Fourth, the LAOALA192501 at 683, and it crimps everything from 2-pin to 10-pin,
01:30so network cable, flat telephone cable, the weird stuff.
01:34Stripper and cutter are built right in, the head's compact enough to get into tight boxes,
01:38and it's sitting at 4.9.
01:40If you're on a tight budget but still want a tool that doesn't feel like a toy, this is the
01:45one.
01:46And finally, the 12-in-1 cabling repair set, the best pick if you're starting from zero.
01:51You get the crimper, the tester, a punch-down tool, a stripper, plus RJ45 and RJ11 connectors,
01:58all in one kit for $10.85.
02:01Rated 4.7 with over 4,000 sold, and it covers basically everything a first DIY install throws at you.
02:08So that's the list.
