Please log in for more thread options smoke started coming out of the modem. I quickly unplugged it. I noticed that the power cable I'd plugged into the modem wasn't the original that came with Arescom modem. I tried what I assume is the correct power cable and it continued to smoke. I have more than a few cables with these ...I'll call them 12v barrel connectors (please if you know the proper name let me know). I don't understand electricity the way I should so reading the specs on the cables isn't something I excel at. But, the specs on the cables seem to vary . They all say 12v, but some have 1A, 1.5A, 10w ... My question is this, is it proper to assume that I can use any cable with this type of connector with my modem? | ||||||||||
