M6 Pro MR6550 Faulty Power Adapter

I got a M6 Pro Unlocked MR6550 for a US colleague, and when using the original power brick and cable, the nighthawk doesn’t boot and says “use the supplied power adapter when operating without battery”. Which is funny because it is the original power adapter and cable.

I’m getting a new power adapter from Netgear, but I’m curious:

Could someone do me a slot and send a pic of their M6 Pro US power adapter. Specifically the text part that has the input output info.

Has anyone experienced this?

    Sent PM to you. Please check. I would like to get your set of USB cable and PA back to check.

        I'm having the same problem as well. Seems like the OEM charger isn't giving the output required. Please advise.
