    I MENT RJ11 NOT RJ45

    So what im asking is how can i upgrade this? can i get rid of the splitter and somehow have only my phone line connected to the RJ-45 socket? so one wire no splitter, What can i do to make this better?? Also is there anyway i can extend the black phone line cable that you see in the picture so that i can set it up in a different room "Can someone tell me the correct name of that "splitter", Again i am noob" I have no idea if this even made any sence lol. And thanks for reading this. Close up of the "splitter"

    Aidan,

    The "splitter" you have shown is only a junction box and from your picture is not connected to anything. These boxes are used for joining two different cables together. The black cable is not terminated so I would guess you could remove this box without affecting your service.

    Is your RJ11 box working ?
