Internet router broken

Hello, recently we had a bad storm. And our power flickered but I think it completely broke our router. It is plugged in but there are no lights glowing whatsoever, I know we have an internet outage going on but normally when my internet is down the router still has lights on it.

user_ev1ymf It's hard to say really what could be going on espicially if you are in the middle of a service interruption due to a storm. Hope you and all your loved ones are ok. When service is restored we can test you connection and equipment if you like.

Try plugging your router into a different outlet to see if the lights come back on.  If so, you will probably need an electrician to check that outlet for you.
