can you just connect the usb wires directly to the phone line cable instead of using the phone jacks ports? i dont have the phone jacks. i just have a usb extender cord and a 25 ft. phone line cable? plz reply?!!!!!!!!!!?

You can as long as you keep on top of what's connected to what and that you have something to connected to the two phone lines together (unless you're making it into one whole line). I did that with one part of the USB cord so that I can use the other with the jack on it (combined with a mini hard drive that runs strictly on USB or a little flash drive) to have as a place where I can store hidden stuff. I'm not sure in your case though that you should go with the whole 25 feet. May not work.
