Fixing a Cat 5e Wall outlet

Although I’m no pro­fes­sional when it comes to fix­ing wires or re-wiring as I would have pre­ferred to have done today, I fixed my inter­net and now I’m able to access it where I wasn’t before. I had to buy a few tools, such as scis­sors, some tape and a few other things.

I really should have bought some glue.

How­ever for some rea­son I didn’t think of that, so instead the wire inside the Cat 5e Wall out­let which broke inside, is con­nect­ing freely with­out any glue or tape wrapped around it. The two points of the wires are just touch­ing, enabling myself to access the internet.

Here is my ‘progress’ so far:

Zoomed in:

If I had a sol­der­ing machine, this would be fixed within a sec­ond. Alas I do not have a sol­der­ing machine, and I tried other ways and meth­ods how­ever they pro­duced 0 results.

For now, I’m not even going to touch what I’ve worked on, it is actu­ally work­ing per­fectly for me now and I have no issues with it as of now! How­ever if I brake it, or if the wires come off each other, then I’ll prob­a­bly look into a more per­ma­nent solu­tion and I’ll work on it more.

But damn, that was annoy­ing. I’m actu­ally quite proud I fixed this! Plus, the fact I noticed or found out what the issue was. Appar­ently I was tug­ging too much on the RJ45 wire, and some­how or the other it broke one of the wires inside.

Update:

I fixed it. I sol­dered the wires back together, then placed every­thing back inside the box com­part­ment. I don’t live at place any­more, how­ever the next per­son who does, and if he or she pur­chases an inter­net con­nec­tion, they’ll have no prob­lem with the wall port.
