[colug-432] Linux Router/MODEM: Power Supply Status

[Thomas Cranston]

Not dead. Is supplying correct voltage. Makes the other DI-704 light
up. I do not know what amperage it is actually supplying.

Speaking of wall warts, I looked at USRobotics Faxmodem page. It's
power supply appears to be of the older big hunk of stuff vintage.
Terminology? Maybe there is a dependability issue.

My neighbors DLink wireless router was on the blink. Rather not
blinking at all. Turned out that the new type wall wart was no good.
Found a wart of appropriate specs, and the DLink wireless began to
work.
