Re: Netgear WNDR3700 Whining Sound
So you're saying the caps can be bad even if they physically look OK? I'm not seeing any bloatness nor any deposits. The smell is really bad, and is very strong.
Also, it looks like I damaged a small ceramic cap near that yellow arch while trying to pry the case open.
I'm going to look in my storage bins to see if I have a similar adapter. I also saw on eBay a new adapter for $14 shipped, not sure if I want to start replacing every part while not being 100% sure the adapter is bad. I'm almost positive it is.
I'll follow Mock's and RW's ideas about measuring and report back.
Thanks guys!
