US Laptop In Europe?
 

what do I need, as far as a power adapter?

just one of the plugs that allows your 110 to connect to a 220 any travel store will have one.

thanks for the help!

You need something that can transform 220 VAC to 110 VAC. A passive plug adapter wont do it...


But look at your power unit... maybe it is multi voltage

If it's a laptop, it's multi-voltage, so yes an adaptor will do and no need for a transformer.

All laptops are multi-voltage, so you just need a plastic plug adapter.

The phone line is more of a problem. I've had to hack into them all over the world but in many places the front desk will have an adapter, otherwise I strip the wires and make my connection copper to copper. :thumbsup

why would you want a phone line when all european hotels and coffee shops have wireless broadband?

Look at your power adapter:

if it says " input 110 - 240 V " , you are ok. Just need the adapter to fit in the wall...

Pssst - shhhh, don't tell all these Stateside people who think they have all the technology or they might get envious :winkwink:

A lot of the places I have been it was not available, even a year ago. Obviously that is changing, here too.

A year ago like now you can walk into any hotel or coffee shop and get on wireless broadband for free, I'm not sure where you went? I dont know anywhere in europe where people use a dial up connection, but most use wireless anyway

all european hotels?

exagerate much?

not really

All of those worth staying at. Not had any problems for ages now.

Not one hotel had this
