HELP!.....laptop modem cable required.....

[anonymous-user]

ok, i know nothing about USD, BPS and all the other three letter acronyms that appear on the box of the modem which I have....but i have broken clip that hold the cable into the modem in the laptop. the cable is currently being held in place by sellotape and i would dearly like a new cable. it is very thin and has four little prongs that go into the modem, the other end fits into the telephone socket. Right thats the essay over, can anyone find me a replacement. I have looked on amazon.co.uk but nothing looks suitable.

Sounds like this...



Go to www.maplin.co.uk and search for RZ75S

Try www.smcdirect.co.uk/ they may be able to supply the cable as it sounds like it of the dongle variety.
Or www.sitecom.com are the makers and have a list of suppliers.

sadly not, the connection in the background is fine but the one in the foreground isnt the same. mine doesnt have a clip and slots directly into the modem in the side of the laptop. thanks for trying to help though! dont stop searching on my behalf!!

Sounds like a PCMCIA card. credit card sized bit of kit that slides into a laptop. Try the links i gave as they may be able to get one direct mate.

That's a standard BT telephone plug.
