Moving Vodafone router, Telephone over CAT6?
Hi Guys
I am moving my router to under the stairs, and need to convert the Male telephone wall box into a Rj45 (Cat6) male to send the signal to under the stairs, where it needs to go again from male Cat6 cable into a telephone adapter to plug into the router.
Basically I have a terminated CAT6 cable running the long distance already installed in the house, but I need an adapter to plug into the BT box at one end then back into the Router's telephone socket at the other.
I can find lots of female telephone to male cat6 adapters (like the below) but nothing which is the 'reverse' of this:

Can anyone point me in the direction of one Ebay, Amazon etc
Thanks,

Thanks, that looks like it would do it. That is the second socket on the bt box, where currently I use a mini rj45 types plug.
Does it matter which I use?
Thanks :)
Edit; through your link I found the below which lookalike perfect!

Need to see the box! (which box do you mean, the wall box where the line comes in?) Normally they have a BT socket for the phone (filtered) and an RJ11 (unfiltered) for the broadband signal. You need the RJ11 for the router.

Best to have your modem/router right next to the master port. Then run cat5e to where your router/switch is.

Best RJ11 cable you can get. Short and good quality.
