wi-fi - You can usually find them on ebay quite cheap too.Search for "wire tracer", "fox and hound", "tone tracer" things like that.cpAES/newspost wrote in messagenews:telecom22.704.7@telecom-digest.org: I have a big old house whose internal wiring is a chaotic mess: innumerable wires and cables running from here to there, inside the house, over the roof, under the eaves, and through ducts -- phone cables, ancient twisted pairs, Cat 5 cables, cable coax lines, low-voltage lighting, remote speaker wiring, doorbell wires, thermostat wiring, etc, etc, etc, some of it currently in use, some not. Is there some kind of standard tool kit for signal tracing, with a signal generator I can clamp onto a pair of wires, or preferably onto the bundle of twisted pairs inside a cable jacket full of wires at one end -- hopefully, without having to actually contact the individual wires -- and a detector I can wave near the possible route or the possible other end of the cable, to see if it really _is_ the other end? Sources for buying such? Thanks for any info.
