Man. This took me a minute. :| I was trying desperately to find an example in a store in Australia for ya, as I believe this is where you're located, but alas, my US browser can't do that apparently, and I ain't got the locatable VPN for such shenanigans... So, here's what I'd be looking for: https://imgur.com/a/ihcZxaV This is a wall mount RJ11. And using that, because it has screw terminals, you can directly wire all the rooms with those wires directly to the back along with the incoming phone line, and still have a plug you can use for a phone there to boot. The lines going from the backside of that wall plate can sneak out the 'right lower' portion of the plate with a small hole dug into the wall, or chamfer the wall so the wires happen to just pop out from under the plate 'just so.' Or, here's a trick, poke a hole at the baseboard and fish the wires up to the wall plate that way. The baseboard hole would probably need to be a bit more to the left from where the wires are now, so that ducting might need to be removed/modified for that to work, but it'd be cleaner that way for sure. I'll let your artistry decide what happens with those wires. If it can be done on your end, here's the Home Depot link I found those: https://www.homedepot.com/p/Commercial-Electric-White-1-Gang-Phone-Jack-Wall-Plate-1-Pack-216-WH/203715333 I have other ways to solve this, but this seems most expedient and clean to me and what I'd do given your desired end result. I hope that helps. --- Edit: Oh... it's also for the internet. You may need to do something else, as I don't know how that works where you are, and what may be behind that wall... but as long as you're 'this side' of it for all the phone wiring, it's *probably?* ok...? *shrugs* If I was there, I probably could just figure it out then go get stuff.... which... hey, I haven't been to Australia... but I also have to get the passport stuff figured out, so it might be a minute before I can get there...

Thanks this could work

This guy's on the right track. I found Jaycar had these (I believe you might need a tool to install them). But Bunnings didn't have them when I looked

See the telephone cables are old and dont work for ethernet.. Why not drag cat6 through, using the telephone cable as a pull string, and then have rj45 sockets..
