General Question: Does the length of a phone cord from the wall to the laptop have any effect on the computer?
Reason: I have a Toshiba 1800 which I ran on a 25ft cord (aprox) and the modem fried in the first week of ocassional use. My retailer replaced the laptop, no problem. I want to make sure that long cord I used on the first laptop will not damage this new one before I hook it up to that long cord again. I'm thinking resistance? Thanks Dave.
