Best way to connect external router to OnQ

Jul 30, 2005 0 Replies

Greetings, I have a house that came preinstalled with a an OnQ 1x6 Basic telecom module (part 1267062-01) connected to a 6 port expansion module (1267062-01). All the jacks throughout the house are connected to either one. Soon I will be getting cable internet and I would like to connect an external router to some of the jacks in the rooms. All connections use standard cat5 cable from the OnQ to the jacks. I tried using a tone generator to isolate the unlabled cables and where they ran, but since all the cables are connected together, it was difficult for me to do. Is there a simple way to do this? I am thinking, I need to pull out the cables for the rooms that I need internet and connect them to the router.



I am new to this but I know computers and networking pretty well.



Thank you for your time and help.
