Cat5e Wiring Diagram: What's for Home LAN?

[r_manic]

I've always heard about two ways to crimp the ends of an RJ45 cable, namely:

Standard Patch Cable A
EIA/TIA 568A Color Scheme

Standard Patch Cable B
EIA/TIA 568B Color Scheme (AT&T)

As a point of clarification, which one should I follow when making cables for a LAN network? PCs-to-hub configuration I mean.

It really doesn't matter, so long as you are consistent. 568B is more common, though.

So... in terms of speed and reliability, they're practically the same?

They will both run at the same speed.
