Gbit over Shielded non-twisted cable?

I am facing the issue of having a cable run of like 20-30 meters (Guess) which consists of 8 non-twisted solid core wires, the cable is foil shielded. I cannot really just run a proper new wire because its embedded in the wall wiring. I tried calculating the length given the awg and resistance but since I measure a roundtrip resistance of 12 Ohm's either my equipment sucks or I have bad contact (Dont really want to solder for testing this)

If I had to guess I would assume running ethernet over this should work just fine, but can anyone maybe offer a more educated guess than me? Thanks in advance :D
