C7000 Smaller Power Brick
The power plug is too big for the location I am trying to move my router modem to. Is there a smaller plug that will work with my C7000 Router Modem? I cannot believe in this day and age that big plugs are still a thing. Thanks for any help you can send my way.

problem is a too-crowded outlet strip, then I's get a cheap extenstion
cord (with a smaller plug).> [...] I cannot believe in this day and age that big plugs are still a

The ratings should be printed on the adapter and the C7000, and
should be found in the User Manual, too. Shop around, if you want.Trying to put the plug into a built in wall outlet and then put a second plug in the other socket. Problem is, once I put in this large power brick, there is not room for the other plug. I am trying to hide as much as possible so an extension cord just worsens the problem .

can't see any of the stuff which you're not describing very well. You
seem to have a home-improvement problem, not a modem+router problem, so
this might not be the best forum for it.Previous advice still applies.
