RJ11 Internet Wire

I'm one of those few people that lives in a condo without fibre installed. Instead, I have RJ11 telephone wire running from a modified phone jack to my digital box/modem. The length is about 12 feet ...

    The single wire pair phone jacks and two wire pair cables should work fine together. I just wouldn't couple two RJ11 cables together though. Just get one longer one. The couplers can sometimes be problematic.

    The single wire pair RJ11 cables are very old. I don't think I've seen one in many many years. Unless you can find a place with really old stock (like from the 80s or 90s), or you build your own cables, you're likely going to end up with a two pair cable.
