StephenB -- yea sorry about that, there are two concerns I have that I didn't do a good job clarifying in the other thread:
1. If I can find a replacement PSU somewhere, I'd rather just fix the NV+ myself. Given how huge this thread is and few folks successfully finding replacement PSUs in it, I thought I'd ask about that.
2. In this thread and the other thread, the Service Action item is to reverse the fan and add an addon to your NV+ -- all assuming the NV+ is still running... mine is dead. I haven't seen anyone comment that Netgear is fixing these units or sending out replacement PSUs (and got done reading Netgear support horror stories on Amazon last night) so I'm trying to find a way to fix this myself.
As you pointed out though, I guess I don't have a choice and need to start with netgear support... I am sort of expecting to be back here in 12hrs asking where anyone can find a replacement PSU though -- so I'm trying to get that ball rolling first :(
