Re: Replacement Openreach Modem - Still able to view line st


[re: R0NSKI] [link to this post]
 
In reply to a post by R0NSKI:
Is it likely to be problematic? It's rated at 12v 0.7 amps
Look on the back of the 3B modem. What does the manufacturer's label say that it, the modem, requires?

There was a lot of duff information being propagated, even by the BT Group themselves, some months ago. The "Kelly Cowboys", who had been contracted to swap out all the earlier versions of the modems, failed to swap the PSUs at the same time. Someone within the BT Group decided to start a campaign of misinformation to cover up that blunder.

It says: Power Rating 12v 1 Amp.

Perhaps I'll find a suitable 12v 1amp transformer at some point, just to be on the safe side.

A wise move, methinks. wink

Thanks, so the black one should be just about up to the job, but the white (1amp) version would be better.
