Hello,
I am completely a noob in these subjects.
I just moved into a new apartment, built in 2020, and there are RJ45 sockets in every room.
I had the Free technician come to install the Freebox server in the wiring cabinet where the fiber arrives.
I notice that the WiFi works quite well, but the RJ45 sockets don't seem to be working.
Do I need to do any specific manipulation??


Configuration: Android / SamsungBrowser 13.2

Hello,
To distribute Ethernet to the wall outlets, the telephone "octopus" from the 4 RJ45 sockets must be removed.
Then, using 4 Ethernet cables, connect the 4 RJ45 outputs from the box to the 4 wall outlet connections.
Best regards

Hello and thank you for your response.
I ordered 10 small cat6a ethernet cables (I only had 2 in stock).
However, I have another question.
In the living room, I have 3 devices that would benefit from being connected via RJ45 (TV box, PS4, and Sonos speaker). Can I use a D-link switch to multiply my RJ45 ports in the living room? If not, are there any other alternatives (that won't break the bank)?
