Hi all,
I want to replace the thin and flimsy 4m DSL cable that came with my FritzBox router for something shorter and of better quality.
My question is, can I use a standard cat6/7 patch lead as the connection between my router and the filtered VDSL wall socket? The VDSL socket accepts both RJ45 and RJ11 type connectors and my router has an RJ45 port for VDSL/WAN (not RJ11 as you commonly find on routers).
I've seen some good quality DSL cables that have an Rj45 on one end and RJ11 on the other, but they state the RJ11 is for the router end and Rj45 for the wall socket.... Are they reversable so I can use it the other way around?
I've never really looked too much in to cable details before.
Cheers!
