Anyone here knows if the Asus WL-500W would be shipped from the factory with only a 2 Amperes power supply? I bought a used WL-500W which came with a only 2A power supply, is it possible that it has been changed? A WL-500gP V2 which I bougt as new came with a 2.5A power supply.
Wouldn't 5V 2A be too little, as the bottom sticker says 5V 2.5-3A?
I can't answer you about 2A, but you can buy DLink DUB-H7 (or H4) USB-Hub, this come with power supply 5V 2,5A.
Hello
I got a wl-500g premium from a friend wich shows steady leds only. So ive been looking for a other power supply and i finally managed to find one that seems to work ok but the power supply gets really hot. Im not sure if its safe to use. Here are the specs :
input : 100-240vac 50/60hz 0.2a
output : +5v 1a
Is it ok to use it or should i search for a other one?
Thanks in advance!
Hi,
Sorry for bothering you, bot all I can find is replacing PSU about this subject.
I got my wl-500gP v1 to a standard PSU problem: all lan and wan are lighten and wifi and power not, no recovery, no IP.
I got new PSU 5v/3A - worked like charm for a week. Then I get it back broken state. I took the current from molex - to check if it is PSU again and it was still broken.
I opened the device and found two bumped capacitors, which I immediately ordered. By the time I did not touch it - and miracle - after a week, just before I wanted to do soldering, it started working again.....but also for a 2 weeks this time.
I replaced capacitors, tried two more PSU and yet nothing works. I took off the wifi card. No Olegs nor other 3rd party soft.
When it is in broken state the voltage on the PSU socket goes down to ca. 2V. Looks like something is broken on the main board regarding the power supplying.
Any ideas ? Cheers for reading.
