Power adapter
Since I cannot find any information of the ouput voltage of the adapter, so does the power adapter shipped with Netgear Orbi support 220v/50Hz power network (non US standard)?
Petey, I guess you mean voltage and current......... Perhaps you should be reading up..... ;)

um amperage = current
voltage is irrelevent as all new power supplies are 110-240v these days
wattage is a calculation of voltage and amps
so i stand by what i said
Frequency DOES matter when it comes to ANY "transformered" devices. Overheating and/or burnout can occur if 60 Hz rated devices are used on 50 Hz current, as there is not enough iron in the induction cores, and the devices overheat. With "switching" power supplies, there is less of an issue. The power supplies SHOULD have a voltage/current/frequency input rating printed thereon.
Finally, someone understands what Frequency means

and they all do and almost all have 110-240 and 50 to 60 hz so they are one transformer that can work world wide with just a change in the pun out
Oh dear, you are missing the point. The thing that matters is output voltage and current. Maybe you do need to read those books Petey!
