Re: 3400 phone line?
Bob, Their is a special adapter for the 3400, but if you do not plan to use both the ethernet and modem at tthe same time you can hard wire either through the rear port. Roger Bob Williams wrote: I just bought a PowerBook 3400c as a backup to my old iBook.

The RJ-45 connector on the back is for both Ethernet and modem. The laptop originally came with an adapter cable that brought out two connectors. But you can use it with either without the adapter. It's best to not use it with a two line phone jack (unless you use a single line cable, two wires only) as the second line is on the same pins as one of the Ethernet pairs. Both can be used simultaneously. -- Clark Martin Redwood City, CA, USA Macintosh / Internet Consulting I'm a designated driver on the Information Super Highway -- PowerBooks is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

Re: 3400 phone line?
Thanks Gary. It would've helped if the 3400 had come with a manual ... I'm a little embarrassed and very grateful. Thanks! Bob From: Gary D.

Re: 3400 phone line?
Bob, I started to send you the pdf, but it was a big email to send unrequested. Here's a link to legacy manuals, where I got my copy: http://www.info.apple.com/support/manuals.legacy.html They are all there! Lou Bob Williams wrote: Thanks Gary.

Re: 3400 phone line?
Thanks Gary. It would've helped if the 3400 had come with a manual ... I'm a little embarrassed and very grateful. Thanks! Bob Just obtained a 3400c myself. Go to apple's webpage and download the owner's manual and the tech manual in PDF format. The owner's manual alone is over 189 pages. I printed it out and made up a looseleaf manual. It's been invaluable. You can even download the designer's notes, over 150 pages. WWW.Apple.com .Look for the legacy section. Regards.
