So in our living room there is only one RJ45 socket in the wall which is used for a home phone right now, but we would like to install an access point there to cover that area with WiFi as well.
On the other end there is our router and the Cat5 cables hanging free and running to the other rooms (we don't have a patch panel).
After some search I thought I will use 2 of these RJ45/RJ11 splitters, but they are not available in my country.
Then I thought what if I use 2 RJ45/RJ45 splitters like these, but I found this site and realized the two types of splitters might have different wirings inside them.
Is it okay to use RJ45/RJ45 splitters for this problem if I punch down the end of the cables right? (And if I first figure out the wiring inside the splitter somehow, because none of them come with a diagram in my country.)
Also there is a common line in webshop descriptions for these products in my country which goes "Not capable for sharing internet." I guess that's there for those who think can split the internet signal with only 1 splitter and run it to 2 devices. Anyway, that red text is kinda worrying, so correct me if I'm wrong.
Any advice is welcome. Thanks!
