I bought a new router in China and set it up this morning. The coverage and speed are great for a £25 router. It has 6 antenas and is rated AC 1750M. The firmware is in Chinese but the UI is good. I had it set up in a minute. You can use google translate as needed. The plug on the adapter is a US style which will be good for China and when I move back to Canada but doesn't help me so much in the UK. I currenlty have it set up with an adapter but prefer not to use them. I'm wondering if I can use the adapter from the router my ISP provided. My tp-link adapter says: 100-240v 50/60Hz 0.3A 12V .. 1.0A The UK adapter says: 100-240b 50/60Hz 0.6A MAX 12V ...1.0A They look fine to me, like the UK one can handle a higher AMP load and they have the same output, is this correct?
Check the polarity on the adaptors is the same, there should be a symbol on the casing for this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polarity_symbols#/media/File:AC_adaptor_polarity.png (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polarity_symbols)
Generally speaking as long as the voltage matches it'll work. if your device will only pull as many amps as it requires so if your adaptor is rated for more amps that's fine. If its the other way round and your device is pulling more amps than your adaptor can handle your adaptor will usually work for a short period before going pop. Atomic has a point about polarity though...
