Forum rules do not forbid you from telling people where to purchase items. ie Amazon or eBay. The rules only "forbid" you from posting links to e-commerce sites.

Re: Need to replace the mains power supply

Which White Box are you referring to, an FTTP ONT or a VDSL and or G.Fast Modem and how has the Power Lead suddenly become to short?

Either way I’d be extremely careful what you replace it with because if you replace it with the wrong kind you could wake up one day to a melted ONT/DSL Modem.
