Get a surge protector that has the regular us input. That's what I did and it works fine.

I think he is talking about the ethernet, not the power supply. All the lan cables in Vietnam fit somewhat loose. Just make sure that it is held inplace securely, what I do is run the ethernet cord under the laptop to help hold it in place and then I usually do not have any other problems, other things you can do is put a folded piece of paper on the TOP and plug it in, all the connections are on the bottom, but as I said I simply use the laptop to hold it in place. Hope this helps, and if you are in Saigon, give me a shout and we can have drinks on the weekend.
