Power Supply for my router broken

[db1]

Hi,

The power supply for my router has blown for some reason. It was working fine yesterday and today wouldnt turn on.

I had a quick look on the Maplins site for a 5V, 2.5A power supply but there only seem to be ones for around £20 with multi selectable ranges etc. Does anyone know where I could find one cheaper; it has positive polarity on the inner terminal.

Many thanks

You could try and contacting the maker of the router see how much they charge,or maybe your local computer shop can help you out.but £20 is about right as 2.5A is quite high for such a small voltage,and not very common.
