Did the switch/hub have a power supply originally?

If it did then presumably it no longer works or you've lost it and you need a replacement.

Shouldn't be a problem you can get multi-voltage DC power supplies, I believe Argos may do them.

They also come with many different connectors so you should find one to suit your hub/switch.

Make sure you get the polarity right, this should be marked on the Linksys, by the power socket.

Also make sure the PSU delivers at least 200mA.
