I didn't mention that there's no easy way from looking at the modem to find out what PSU it should use.
You may have to use a bit of trial and error...

Dear Rob,
the thing you say it's very very interesting.... in effect I'm really not
sure PSU are the one that come with modems...
This could be an interesting hint!

Thanks in advance,
I'll certainly let you know.

Alberto
