My prefered bit would be a couple RJ21 to RJ11 snakes, and/or a couple RJ21
to RJ11 socket "harmonica" (I think thats what the patch panel of RJ11
phonenet sockets is called).

I don't really have a big desire to buy and learn to use punchdown blocks
and tools, and don't "really" have a use other than playing with it.
Unfortunately the darn boxes were "made" for serious use in wiring closets
etc., and my house was built by idiots with bell wire instead of twisted
pairs.

Let me know what you find.
