Re: Linksys E3200 I just had the router delivered to me today. I can't find a power button to turn the unit on and off. Of course the unit comes on when i plug in the adapter but i don't see a on off switch. |

| From a picture I've seen here »home.cisco.com/en-eu/products/routers/E3200 it appears to be adjacent to where you plug in the power connector. |

kudos:1 | Now that you mention it, I can't think of a consumer router that has a power button. Nor cable/dsl modem, either. |

Most folks run their routers 24/7, so a power switch is not considered a biggie. In a typical year, I doubt that my router spends more than a few hours off, outside of a power outage.

My E3000 has a power switch. Not that I've used it all that much since the router stays on 24/7/365 |
