Go out to the box on the side of your house where the phone line
comes in and twist the yellow and the black wires together. Those
are the wires used by LocalTalk. I don't think this will work if
you've caller ID, but I don't have that, so I don't know.
Adaptor-wise, I've a few. I could send you some, I just don't
remember if I've any terminators about.
