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.
