I have a long 2 pair cat 5 cable which I want to use to connect a ADSL modem to my desktop (located in a different room). I took the cable to few local computer dealers but none of them could help me connect an RJ-45 connector to it. They can only connect a 4 pair cat 5 cable. I could not find any help on the internet either.Can anyone please explain the step by step method to connect a 2 pair cat 5 Ethernet cable to a RJ-45 connector. Kindly use simple language.
