Hi there
I need to replace the power supply to my Eircom Netopia 2247NWG Router. The power supply says
ac/dc adaptor
input 230v ~ 50hz 110mA
output 12.OV 800mA
From various searches of the internet I understand that the replacement must have the same volts (i.e. 12v) and the AMPs must be higher than 800mA (0.8A).
I tried an existing plug which has the following written on it
AC Adaptor
Input 100-240v ~ 50/60Hz 0.8A
Output 12v 2.0A
I expected this to work as it seemed to meet the criteria - but it didn't. Any ideas? Is the fact that this plug says AC Adaptor rather than Ac/Dc adaptor significant perhaps?
Many thanks indeed
