I am creating a hard wired network throughout the house. I've currently got about 16 Cat5e cables to terminate. They all feed to a central point in the loft I am bound to mess up some of the connections so I was wondering how best to test the wiring. Is there a software programme or something i could download?

Thanks guys. I see you can also get them on the Bay for under £3. Although I could rig something up myself I suppose they are easier - though maybe I shouldn't bother unless I have issues if it is just continuity testing. They don't even appear to check resistance (have I got a good connection) - just open/short circuit. I am surprised the PC can't test more comprehensively.
