Re: Is it Legal to Solder the power cord to the D-Link

I believe one of the exceptions is repair- could you open the thing (or maybe you don't need to), add solder to the plug(s), so they would have a good connection (Like they should- you would still be able to pull the plug out)? That would be allowed by the rules and would work better.
