Actually, he might mean RJ25, which is the 6 wire version of the phone jack. RJ11 was only 2 wires. Way back in the dark ages, what eventually became 10baseT Ethernet was called StarLAN and intended to run over existing CAT 3 phone wiring. That wiring would often be 3 pairs to an RJ25 jack, with the middle pair used for the phone and the other 2 for the LAN.
Good luck plugging that in to the raspi's RJ-45 or finding a hub with an RJ-25 connector for that matter :) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
