I've just had my second power supply fail (the router just goes into a power up cycle, dropping and re-booting just after the power LED goes solid green). It's not the router, same power supply on a different router produces the same result, new PSO on old router and everything is fine again.
In my experience, this seems to be a weak point with 2700s, and I wondered if anyone had found an alternative, better made PSU for the unit?
I agree Rik it seems to be the week link and it makes sense to have a spare. The best way seems to be buy an extra 2700 on ebay and keep it for spares. :eyebrow:
I have two more, Den. ;D
Me too Rik ;D
Spare Routers Ltd? ;)
I would to set up a company called "Very Ltd" ;D
:lol:
I bought a couple of spare PSUs from DigiDave a while back, and whilst I haven't used them for the 2700 yet, I do use one of them for charging up my sat nav, and they seem to work fine.
Thanks, Simon. :thumb:
What's the spec of the PSU? It may be possible to get something suitable from Maplins or CPC/Farnell.

Suitable power supplies are readily available, but it is cheaper to buy a complete 2700HGV off Ebay.
I was just thinking of getting something which would last a while, Alan.
