You have a wire tester to test the cable after you make it? Ethernet has a limit of 100m so you're not breaking that

well if you're using the same devices to test the different cables, then your crimping isnt being done properly. It is best to have a tester to see if a wire comes up short, as thats all it takes. Check each end of the cable, see that each wire is contacting in the metal in the RJ45. You can also see a good physical layer connection is if there are green lights on the network ports of your devices.
