those connectors are use once connectors I doubt you will have any joy getting the wires back in.
You can either open the dongle up and solder the wire straight in or a new cable is only about 6ukp from your local reflex stockist.

Those connectors are pretty standard RJ45 plugs as used in huge numbers in both the telecoms and IT industries. If you wanted to just get hold of a new plug, you will almost certainly get one from somewhere like Maplin electronics, www.maplin.co.uk
I hope this helps.

actually they are RJ11, The connectors are cheap but I think the crimp tool is pretty expensive, probably cheaper just to buy a new lead.
