Power adaptor does not work any more. According to chatting with lee of magic jack stake, the power adaptor will be sent to me free. Suddenly the chat was disconnected.
All MagicJack Power Adapters provide 5v DC through USB interface. Until replacement can be obtained, you can plug MagicJack into your computer USB port (computer must stay on to provide power however)

Looks like you're right, I did not see any Lenovo replacement jacks either. You might try looking at the IBM Thinkpad jacks for various models to see if you can find the same jack.
I've repaired 3 laptops with this problem. Rather than replacing the jack on the mainboard I wired a "pigtail" to the mainboard and then zip tied a female connector to the back of the laptop itself. I did this because the mainboards were pretty beat up from the heat the original jack produced as it began to loosen. The end result is not as pretty as the original jack, but it absolutely takes all the stress off the mainboard. Those computers will never have this problem again.
Good luck.

Did you wiggle it a bit when plugged in? You can't tell from looking on the outside if the plug is fine because it goes bad inside where it is soldered. This is a very common problem, and have fixed many laptops with the same problem. All of them had a bad solder connection inside. Did you dtermine the plug was fine by plugging another ac adapter to your laptop or you just checked it visually? Hit me up I will solve this one for you.

Hi:
The power jacks can be bought on line for less than $10, but the fun part is the repair. The laptop must be dis assembled to get at the power jack, and when you do get to it, it takes a deft hand and soldering skills to swap one out successfully.
I have done a few and am personally only about 50% successful. There are electronics shops that swap out the power jacks for about $150, and guarrantee their work.

You need to take the unit apart down to the system board. Sorry, I do not have the sefrvice manual.
The link below shows how to resolder the connector on the system board.
