Do you have a volt meter to test the adapter to see if it is giving out the correct voltage?

That was one of the things I was wondering.  Brown out levels maybe, not enough to drive the unit?  Rare, but I have seen electrical surges make a normally passable electric line become like a coffee straw with throughput. 

 

Have you tried the unit with an outlet that isn't on that particular circuit?  Or as Zennon has indicated, do you have a way of getting a TRUE RMS* reading of the voltage hitting the unit?

*TRUE RMS: basically means the high and low points are sampled and a real average is given.  As opposed to just reading the highest point that spikes, which may not be enough to drive the load unit.

No I don't have a Volt meter I've tried plugging into different sockets around the house same results as the video I linked earlier

I want to say this has happened before to someone else's router.  Duma Army beware of power outages/surges.

Customer service second to none

 

Nah you don't know what you're talking about, they offer no customer service! /s

I've gone through so many routers/modems/ethernet cards due to power outages or surges. My house got hit by lightening once and fried everything that was plugged in.
