Help .. I have a small ethernet socket on my Sony Vaio VGN-Z11, the router I am connecting to has the standard larger RJ45 Ethernet socket, does anyone know the type of Ethernet cable connector I need for the Sony Vaio port (it being much smaller than the RJ45 connector) ? I can't find anything on the web, I guess I would ideally find an Ethernet cable with a small connector for the Vaio side and a larger Ethernet connector for the router side - do these cables actually exist ?

It's probably an RJ11, like you get on a router for connecting the phone line. You can plug an RJ11 plug into an RJ45 socket, believe it or not, so an RJ11 to RJ11 cable may do what you want. Or I may be talking carp, because I've never had to try.Will work inside IR35. Or for food.Comment

Hmm, call me old-fashioned but are you sure that network port isn't a modem? You know. Of the 56k variety.
Was just about to berate myself for being so old fashioned but checked the specs on the Sony site and it does have a built in modem...Last edited by administrator; 27 April 2010, 21:44.Comment
