    I need to order a piece, it's a connector that connects 2 pieces of CAT5, like has two females, so I can take 2 25' lan cables and make it 50' by plugging both into this "coupling". I can't think of the name to be able to search on newegg, thanks for any help.

    Problem with laptop, battery not charging.

    And the ac power cord isn't powering up the laptop without the battery either. I bought a new power cord for the laptop and same issue, so I'm thinking its something internal. It's a Toshiba Protege 3480ct. Should I just tell him to buy another laptop? Thanks for any advice given.
