Where can I purchase an adapter for the at&t 3g microcell?

I search online and unsure where to purchase the adapter?  Please advise.  

 

They sell generic adapters on ebay but I'm unsure if this will cause problems.

Yes. That should work. Others have reported success using generic ac adapters with those ratings.

What do you mean by adapter? The MicroCell just uses standard ethernet cables unless you want to use an extension GPS antenna which can be found by Googling for MicroCell GPS antenna extension cable.

I am referring to the power supply (cord)

If you bought your MicroCell from eBay or anyplace else other than AT&T, make sure the original account has been deactivated. Used MicroCells can have all kinds of issues. The ac adapter (power cord) needs to be rated for 12V and either 1A or 1.25 A.

So it is okay to use a generic power supply (rated for 12V and either 1A or 1.25 A)?
