House wired connect required

[Altruist]

I have something called "line" ports around my house.

So i was wondering if i could use an adsl filter

then use an adsl to enternet adapter on the port would that get me a connection?

Yea, but you should be running cat 6 or 6a these days.

 

Your gonna need to rerun some cables in the walls it seems, no easy other way.

 

You can get some adapters that put ethernet over twister pair, but there normally limited to 100mbit and not cheap.

Do you need wired? Thats really the only option. You can go wireless or powerline aswell.

really? unless he has a gigabit connection with multiple computers and NAS spending a ton of cash in cat6 wiring for a whole house is kinda pointless

 

OP u have regular phone outlets, you can run regular ADSL on them as long as you have a splitter and a modem but not ethernet, and those are not twisted pair, there are only 2 wires going through those because they're meant for a phone and/or modem

problem with adsl is that it goes to one modem, then you still need ethernet to go to all the other systems unless you only have one computer.

only 1 connection required

There are VDSL devices to do this too which will give more respectable speeds than ADSL.  They aren't exactly cheap though.

 

If possible I would think Powerline is a better and much cheaper option.
