 |
|
| Hi. HELP! So I just got a Toshiba laptop because I am going to Jeonju, SK in November. Im reading through my manual and it is talking about countires you can use the wireless in and South Korea is NOT listed! Is there something in Korea, like a wireless I can get installed when I get there that would make my computer wireless friendly. or am I only going to be able to do plug in. Im not so bright when it comes to computer lingo so if anyone can help me out let me know! At least I can just be plugged in around my apt. |

You will be fine as long as you can find a wireless hotspot, get a wireless acount (like nespot) or get a wireless router for your home connection.
Computer standards are global. |

| good! I feel a little relieved! I figured it should be ok. Plus I will be in my apartment with it most of the time so will just be plugging it in. Now I just need to buy plugs for voltage change, etc. what am I looking at for that? a universal adapter? |

Your laptop shouldn't need a voltage adapter. The brick should be good for 110-24-VAC input.
You need a simple plug adapter. They cost about 500 - 1000 won here. |
