    Wiring 3 way switch
    I have four lights in an entry-way. I want to control the first light with a three way switch and the remaining three with another three way. I don't think the gentleman that wired it, did it right though. I have 3 2-wire cables coming into each switch box and only 1 3-wire cable. How do I connect my switches? I at least want one three way.

    Right now I can turn them on from the breaker box and they all come on at the same time.
