    Off the top of my head it's 12v 1000mA, but I'm not 100% on that.

    And remember to get the polarity right ;)

    For the polarity, the positive (+) connection should be in the middle, and the exposed outer should be negative (-).

    Chances are you could pick up an official one off ebay, though.

    Just checked the one i got and heres whats on the label:

    PRI:230v ~50hz 100mA
    SEC : 12V =-=-= 1000mA 12VA
    - Co +

    (where Co represents the inside and out of the rings... C being outside o being inside)

    The PSU Blocks are pretty standard.

    My WAP54G, NTL Modem and the old Netgear Router I had used the same PSU but just different branding.
