r6700 replacement power cord

Hi there, In a recent move I seem to have lost the power cord for my r6700 nether nighthawk router. Does anyone know where I can get a replacement power cord?

 

Thanks

    Netgear doesn't sell replacment power supplies but you can get generic ones off amazon for pretty reasonable. 

    They just need to have the exact same voltage/polarity and at least the same amount of amps. 

    what version r6700 do you have? they took different power supplies

    As plemans says, generic adaptors are the answer. (Check that you don't have something suitable lying around.)

     

    I chip in only to suggest that some of the on-line retailers will make compatibility claims for their adapters. Most Netgear kit has the same specs. So that  might help to home in on possible candidates.

     

    Try a search for "12 volt adapter netgear". You might be surprised. You need 3.5A or whatever it says on the router's label.
