Hello guys and gals,
Last evening when I turned on lights a circuit breaker was triggered. I turned it back on and it didn't trigger again. I went to sleep but when I woke up this morning and turned on my pc I noticed that I couldn't get online. I checked my router and it was dead - no lights at all. I've tried unplugging it, letting it stay unplugged, hitting reset etc... but to no avail.
Lighting and the electric outlets are behind separate circuit breakers, but the only explanation I can think of is that the triggering of the cb and my 825 dying are linked. Am l looking at a dead router or is it more likely that the power adapter got fried? I don't have a fluke at my place right now due to early packing in preparation to moving away in a couple of months time so I cannot test the output voltage of the adapter right now. I'll see if I can borrow one at a later time. Where can I get a replacement power adapter if that happens to be the culprit?
Regards and thank You.

I would check out the power adapter first. Need to take it somewhere, like Radio Shack or a electronics repair shop with a multi function meter and see if there is any out put on the power plug that goes into the router. If not then you just need a new power adapter.
