Broadband ac adaptor

[Yardo1]

I have a BT Smart Hub Type A router and require a longer ac adaptor cable to reach the wall socket 

is there one available?

I’ve  seen extension cables advertised but they seem primarily for extending CCTV leads and I wondered if they worked with a router or whether degradation anyway.

can anyone advise me please ?

can you not just use a power extension like a trailing 2/4 way socket

Doesn't matter what an extension is designated for, you just need to ensure that the DC jacks are the correct size. Both inner & outer barrel dimensions & ideally length too.

Thank you, and having the extension won’t affect broadband performance ?

[rbz5416]

Not unless it's faulty.

Many thanks for your advice 👍

Hi,
Thanks for your reply , I’m afraid I’m not sure what that means, is it possible to post a link which would show me what you describe please ?

Perhaps you haven't noticed , but posts just appear in sequential order so unless you quote the post or use the @ function to tag somebody, we have no idea to who or what your question is intended for.
