• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

Patch panel termination on home network

I wouldn't worry about it. Cat 6 UTP is rated for up to 10Gb. The keyword here being UTP. Unshielded. Considering the type of job this was and the price given, I doubt it would be anything else. In other words, the cables he ran weren't shielded to begin with, so stripping away so much of the jacket, while aesthetically unappealing, isn't actually breaking any rules. You should have no problems with a 1Gb network.

This would be completely wrong for a "proper" 10Gb network though.
