Hi Marie,
I very much doubt the cable which goes between the Livebox
and the Telephone point is the same as the RJ45 network
cable.
Unfortunately I'm not up to date with the French telephone
system, however my best guess is that it is a different
cable, probably similar or the same as is used in the States
and UK.
George.

Hi George, thanks for all the info, very useful, my livebox
is a sagem model not an avantel but apparently, they are
very similar.
I have called support at Wanadoo because I get disconnected
frequently and my pc locks up when it happens.
They say it happens because the cables connecting my pc to
the livebox is usb and the cable linking the livebox to the
phone socket is probably not shielded and distorts or loses
signal.
I live quite near the telephone exchange so, the problem
can't be linked to that.
That's why I want to change the connection. So, the cable
linking the livebox to the pc and the cable linking the
livebox to the phone socket is exactly the same, is this
right? or am I still missing the point somewhere?
If so, I shall order two cables of different lengths as
required from Belkin but I've got to be sure that's the
right thing to do.
Waiting for your reply or anyone else in the know for that
matter.
Thanks in advance to all.
Cheers now,
Marie
