should operate in Europe, but you need differente power plugs and different telephone plugs.

As for your cellphone and PDA, you will need a Step-Up transformer similar to this devices. In the United States we have both 120\240Volts, 60 Hz power but the 240 Voltage is dual-phase not single-phase.

in the United States, such as Modems, Routers, PSU, Monitors, Printers, UPS, External Drives, Powered Hubs, etc., etc., have dual-voltage (110\220 Volts, 50-60 Hz) capability since they are exported around the world.

Just make sure that the device you buy has dual-voltage capability similar to the ones suggested.

As for your telephone adapter, in Italy, you will need an adapter
similar to this one.

[Robert Valerio]

of the Netgear DG834G data sheet, you can read the following:

"Power Adapter: 12 VDC, 1A; plug is localized to country of sale for North America, Japan, UK, Europe, Australia".

Most likely, this means that the adapter is a "universal 110-220 Volts, 50-60 Hz" unit, and the power plug is similar to the plug type used in the country of sale, in this case, North America.

You will need a power dadapter similar to this one.

By the way, I want to warn you that when ordering online from American web sites, you should expect the best services in the world.

However, some of these sites are operated by 'immigrants", and so, some of these people offer inferior services as you should expect if you were to order directly from their native nations.

[lebaron]

scherzi!??
costano un terzo rispetto a noi, prendi tutto e di piu'!
gli alimentatori ora sono 110-220 in automatico vai tranquillo!
comunque chiedi al momento dell'acquisto!

fai sta' "procedura"! ;)

[mavieni74]

guardando sui siti americani non mi sembrava ci fossero queste gran differenze...

[lebaron]

appena sarai li' te ne accorgerai da solo! ;-)

[Robert Valerio]

only, it is difficult to find the component you want at a very low price. With a little patience, in the USA, you can save up to 90% from the original price. The prices here, flatuate every day.

Here are some of the major computer Superstores in Orlando, Florida.

ragazzi sapete se è vero che il wireless dei prodotti americani è molto più potente del nostro...anzi illegale poichè interferirebbe con le frequenze militari???? come faccio a sapere se il prodotto che comprerò rientra negli standard italiani??? ma sopratutto ho visto nella scheda tecnica del modem che mi interessa che ci sono varie frequenze a seconda del paese di appartenenza....è una cosa che posso controllare (cioè la frequenza dell wireless) via software???

[Speedy L\'originale]

Se vai negli Stati uniti, guarda se mi trovi un Opteron 146?

Te lo pagherei bene ;)

(sicuramente non 250€ dei shop tedeschi..)

[mavieni74]

mi dicono di stare lontano dai modem router americani poichè la linea telefonica per internet è diversa vi risulta?????
