DUAL VOLTAGE ON N300 WIFI ROUTER
I BOUGHT THE N300 ROUTER IN THE US, DOES ANYONE KNOW IF THEY ARE DUAL VOLTAGE AND I CAN TAKE IT TO EUROPE AND USE IT? THANKS
You should verify it yourself by looking at the power adapter. If it is says the input voltage is 110V only, then it's US-only. If it says 110V-240V, then it's universal.
One recent visitor to this place bought a router in the USA, took it to India, plugged it in, flash, fizz, boom.
But there is nothing special about the electricity that comes out of Netgear's transformers. So any transformer with the right output – volts and amps – and the right connector will work. It does not have to have Netgear written on it.
I hope we're in all in agreement that the OP needs to look at the adapter for his or her router to determine if it is single voltage or universal. Don't trust any of us to say whether it will work. If the adapter is not dual voltage, OP will still need to look at the specs in order to find a compatible, universal, 3rd party adapter.
