bit of an update, my socket is RJ11 size, small and has 8 wires.
Plugging into it with the other end of the cable being an RJ45 socket and plugging an RJ45 lan cable into the hub does not give me internet. I think the RJ45 to RJ11 cable that I bought only has 4 wires at the RJ11 end. No Idea about the RJ45 end.
The house I have just got has a bank of 6 RJ45 sockets and in places around the house there are I thought RJ11 sockets. Plug into an RJ11 then from the bank of RJ45 into the hub and hay presto internet... or so I thought. So it seems I may want RJ45 8 wire plug to RJ11 8 wire plug.
Not sure what the difference is between cat 5 and telephone wire.
can I get 8 wire Lan/RJ45 plug to RJ11 8 wire plug ?
