Hi,
I am trying to get my broadband router set up in a new house, and the only power socket anywhere near the phone socket is a round pin socket, which I understand to be a 5 amp lamp socket.
Is it possible to get an adaptor so that I can safely use the socket as a standard 3 pin socket? (not sure if it is important but the input on the router's power supply is 300ma).
Is there any risk to the electronics if I do so?
Any thoughts would be much appreciated.
