Where to buy a replacement power supply for my router? - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

Jesus Pimp · 01-16-2004, 08:35 PM

My power supply for my linksys BEFSR41 router died today. So I went to Radio Shack and they wanted 40 bucks for a freaking power supply. Does anyone know where I can get a replacement power supply for cheap?

I would go to Wal-Mart (well, I got mine there anyway) and get one of those multi-purpose ones. I have a wall transformer with a 3-12v selector switch and 8 different tips. It fits just about anything. Was like 25 bucks or something.

just look at the volt on the adapter and find one with the same specs. it cant be that expensive, except at radio shack. i hate that place!

I think I'll just go buy the same router at Best Buy and swap power supplies then return it.

Fill out a request for a new power supply. They do not require proof of purchase, or the old power supply.

Thanks all! I didn't feel like waiting but I'll keep that link for future reference. I ended up going to CC and did the swap trick. No hassle returns rock!

Heh, I can't count how many times I did the swap trick. I even did it once for an empty ink cartridge, which cost over $30, at K-mart. Yay for ignorant employees!
