Converting existing telephone wire to Ethernet cable

v.Na5h

Off Hook!
Is there any way we can convert normal cat 3 four wires telephone cable to Ethernet cable...

I need my existing secondary concealed telephone wiring as a LAN cable

AFA I researched 4 wire can support upto 2 mbps only..

Also couldn't find any rj11 to 45 converter..
So crimping needs to be done I guess

Has anybody tried this..
Or any inputs regarding the feasibility

4 wires cable ? - Ethernet Card - Networking
Hi everybody and thx for your help. I have made some new tests, and I have found the bug :)
I have made a new cable with a real cat5 using only 4 wires and it works great. But if I use a phone cable with the same wiring scheme, nothing works. I guess the signal disapear too fast in the wire due to the electrical conditions of the phone cable (limited freqency). So I have to find another way to wired my house.
