Posted February 21, 2018 Hi everyone. Basically I run a small windows (not the o.s. ) company and we moved to a new place. For some reason I needed my i.s.p. to bring connectivity (phone and internet) on the second floor, on the right side of the building : they said they could bring it only on the first floor, on the left side of the building. Awesome, thank you very much. So now for the Internet access I have a ~ 40meters cat 6 cable that gives me access where I needed it, coming into a switch to split into my pcs, printers and stuff. I thought for the phone i could simply buy a base+3 wireless devices and connect. I was wrong, it worked for a period but now for some reason it will just give me problems really often. Now, given that at the moment it would be really really unpleasant to put a new 40meters cable for the phone, I'm looking for : - a device for the first floor that has an rj41 input to get analogic phone calls and an rj45 ouput to make them travel through my existing internet cable (it has to act as a network device, it can't get the cable just for itself as that is currently used for my internet already!) - a phone with rj45 plug I can connect to the network on the second floor Is it possible to do so? Thanks anybody Link to comment https://linustechtips.com/topic/898777-phonenetworking-problem/ Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posted February 21, 2018 There is a chance https://www.amazon.com/RJ45-RJ11-Cable-Sharing-Kit/dp/B002DI4WYW something like that, would work for what you want, however i believe the way these work are they split the pairs, so you would be limited to 100Mbit on your switch / internet connectivity.

Posted February 21, 2018 Author Thank you sooo much! I'm probably gonna buy a kit like that and try. I'll post in this topic in the future to tell which model I found and how it worked, in case anybody will need infos for a similar problem Link to comment https://linustechtips.com/topic/898777-phonenetworking-problem/#findComment-11070012 Share on other sites More sharing options...
