I don't have a business but I'm an electrical engineer who worked at Verizon for 30 years and have been helping my friends and neighbors here in the Villages. I have all the tools and parts to make cables. I use cat6 RJ45 connectors and wall jacks if you need them. I have the test equipment to test every cable and connection I make to insure it's perfect. I also "straighten-out" the low voltage data cabinets if needed so if anyone you know needs my services/help, please reach out to me.

Sorry I just read this reply just now. You're awesome and kind for helping others! I may contact you in the future for hardware help (I'm a software guy and my hardware work is always ugly.)
I also worked for Verizon (Wireless) IT in their headquarters building in Rockland county a long time ago. I resigned when I moved down to FL. (after I handed in my resignation, my boss said I should've let them know I wanted to move down to FL; he would've let me "work from home") Oh well. VZW was a decent company to work for. I work for Lockheed Martin now, which is also another awesome company to work for.
