Homeplugs (sorry)

[Chippychap]

Hi guys I've searched for this subject but don't wish to trample on anothers thread.
Got the plugs, the one at the PC end is the only thing in that particular socket so OK.
At the phone end the socket is right in front of a radiator so the bulky H/P will not physically plug in.
Tried it on a strip extension but the PC will not log on, even though it's not an anti-surge doodah
Is there any device that will go between my socket and the H/P?
Wondered about just a single socket wired with a short length of lead to a plug and placed in a more accessible position.
Just thought there may be some higher tech bit o' kit that will not kill the signal but allow me to plug it in. Even a double adaptor that turns round the socket.
Thanks guys.
