How do you hook up a computer to a regular outlet?

Question

How do you hook up a computer to a regular outlet without having to use a phone jack for anything. I want to put my computer in my room but have no phone jacks only regular ones. Please tell me if you can or cant do this or if there is some like converter like so I can plug in the phone jack thing then make it be able to plug into a regular jack.

Answer 1

The phone jacks need to be plugged in only if you need to connect to the internet. Look at the jack, if it fits into a regular phone, its for the dial-up modem. If it doesn't cuz its bigger, its for the broad band internet. This jack is also called the Ethernet/LAN jack-11 connector.If you get internet via Wi-Fi.... no need to worry about the phone jacks then. If you do not get wi-fi, but do not need internet either, still no problem. But if you need internet & do not have either wi-fi or phone, thats going to b a small problem...
