Converting Telephone cable to CAT6 & back again?

[Andehh]

I have/had our router (in modem only mode) sat next to the master bt socket connected to my router under the stairs via CAT6, I am wondering if there is any real benefit in this now & for the sake of the extra 20w on permanently I might just leave the Vodaphone router under the stairs and have it do the WIFI & connector to my wired network/etc... And remove they need for a second box 'o tricks.

Is it simply a matter of buying an adapter to convert the telephone wire out of my wall box to CAT6 & then back again?

Many thanks,

Thanks guys, any idea what I'd be searching for to find said adapter? Is a telephone cable technically cat3?

Is the 20W a measured figure, or a guess? I'd expect it to be much lower than that.

Im sure I measured it once, and it was 14w, but that was before I plugged 4 network cable into it!

Thanks very much, the female socket there looks very narrow for my CAT6 RJ45 cables? Is that just the angle of the photo?

It's not the router-modem that has 4 LAN cables, though?

No, The Original setup was BT modem->CAT6-> Belkin router. Then Belkin would do my wifi then into the 4 ports was my network splitter, NAS etc etc. It was this Belkin that was around 15W IIRC.

Seeing as the Belkin Router I use is now several years old, i figure I might get a tiny boost in range going with a modern (ish?) Vodaphone router which might just get me the wifi I want in the Garage (it's borderline as is) combined with saving a smidgen of 'leccy.

Now I just wanted phone socket -> CAT6 -> Vodafone Modem/Router (until it pisses me off through one way or another)

I already have a terminated cat 6 cable with the standard ethernet plug on it, at both ends of the cable. I need to use male telephone to female ethernet/rj45 socket on one end, then same again at the other.

If that makes sense...?

Still struggling on this one.

I need the reverse of the below.

I need make telephone call plug to female ethernet socket? The above suggestions seem to be the reverse of this ala....? I think?

Thanks mate, that's an option. Hoping there might be a cleaner way if doing it without so many adapters & leads.

Namely what was posted above, but reversed!
