Cat 5e longer lead.
Hi. Bought a longer Cat 5e lead but did not realize until got home that the jack is a RJ45 and the existing is RJ11 ( the packaging makes no reference to the jack! ) We have no phone only use tv internet. There was no alternative jack on sale ( in Lowe’s). Where can the RJ45 be purchased? And is it the best configuration available for the nearly $200 we pay / month for tv internet. Thank you!

Ethernet cables always come with RJ45 connectors. The att green data cable is dual twisted pairs with RJ11 (telephone) connectors. You might possibly be able to use a 4-pin telephone extension cord. That's what I use (25' cable, no pair gain). You can get those most anywhere.
If you want to get an exact replacement you can order the cables from this site at varying lengths or a 14' cable from att's own store.
