telephone to usb adaptor 2

[goldtooth]

A relation of mine is trying to link up her BT broadband (telephone connection) to my old pc, which only has usb ports. Can someone please point me to a suitable adaptor, if indeed this will work? Thanks

I would question if its really a telephone connection and not just an ethernet connection.

With that said, does her connection have some kind of Hub or router box that she connects to?

Is there a possibility the box may have wireless capabilities?

I think you may be after a sub ethernet card rather than a phone connection.


If only because a phone connection would be a modem which I kind of doubt is what you need.

I think this maybe the kind of thing you're looking for:-

However, just how 'old' is your old PC? Operating system?

Thanks, G0AOZ and vacunita. A trip to Maplins sorted out the problem!
