Perhaps you missed it, but the OP had correct wiring right
from the start.  He clearly got it right in terms of not
splitting a pair, and apparently understood exactly why

The simple fact is, his statement about the color not making any
difference is exactly right.  It doesn't.

Your cite is nearly worthless.  First, RJ11 has nothing at all
to do with this discussion.  But that entire article is also
quite confusing and disorganized.  If one already knows how to
match the correct information with each use, it can be found;
but trying to learn which configuration is appropriate from the
article isn't possible.

Either TIA/EIA-568-A or TIA/EIA-568-B wiring schemes can be
used, and it makes absolutely no difference.

In fact, there is a good argument that for either 10baseT or
faster EtherNet, the color scheme should actualy be:

     Pin    Color
      1     Blue Tip
      2     Blue Ring
      3     Orange Tip
      4     --
      5     --
      6     Orange Ring
      7     --
      8     --

The pins marked '--' can be associated with any wire as they are
unused.  The argument for this use is simple, as the ordering of
the colored pairs is supposed to be Blue, Orange, Green, Brown,
Slate.
