Question

Answer 1

You will find that the majority of phones sold in Australia now come with the small RJ11 type connector on the end of the connection cable. This is the type of connector you are talking about if it's the same size as the little plugs that go into a dialup modem.

If you need an adaptor to take you the older style connectors with the three pins that go into a little box on the wall, you can get them for a couple of bucks from most electrical stores, or from Telstra. Tandy and Retravision do them. I think you can even get cheap dodgy ones from $2 stores too, if you fancy scrimping and buying something that doesn't work !!

Hope this helps mate !!
