the cable scheme on the jack goes blue, orange, black, red, green, yellow, brown, and white; each designated with a number: 1 to 8. but just remembering the ordewr is simple enough..... with pen and paper of course!
Thanks
Also, 'first the blue pair, then the green pair' will get you in problems.
The correct sequence is (as seen from the "copper" side of the connector, see NOTE below):
white orange
orange
white green
blue
white blue
green
white brown
brown
If you want to make a cross cable, reverse the green(s) and orange(s) on the "other" side.
NOTE below: It doesn't really matter what side of the connector you look at for as long as you always look at "the same side", but most people (me) uses the copper side cuz is easier to see the wires.
YMMV, free advice you can sue me... :)

you will get any answer...

If they don't match, that's a serious problem, pretty magical too.
If each end matches the other end, but the colors are not as expected,
then just assign each twisted pair to your expected colors, and
remember those assignments for each end.
let me know if that doesn't make sense.

get the point. Anyways I'm all excited because now I'm going to connect the
wires to the jack, then I'll do the other side, then my brother is in
business! Except I sit down to connect the other side when I see a
nightmare: instead of blue-green-orange-brown wires the colors of the wires
are blue, orange, black, red, green, yellow, brown, and white; each
designated with a number: 1 to 8. Any idea how I should wire these?
