Need power cord for Airport Extreme - help!

[ybenner]

I was recently given a used square airport extreme router by a friend. However, it is missing the power cord that attaches to the power supply (which I have). Where is a good place to purchase one of these? Does anyone have a reputable source for Apple parts? Do you think Fry's or Radio Shack would have a generic cord that will work? I would prefer to buy from a brick & mortar store if possible (in case the cord doesn't work), but will buy online if I have to.

Thanks in advance.

It's just the figure-8 plug, right? IIRC those are called C7 plugs; you'll be able to find them in RadioShack or the equivalent.

check a printer or a radio. sometimes they use the same cords.

another fun fact about these cords is that you can use them in place of the duck head on a macbook(/pro) power brick to makea psudo extension cable.
