my FRITZ!Box 7390 stopped functioning last night, but now it works again.

I tried restarting it in the morning, but it did not wake up.
I re-animated my 7270, and phone-wise it worked fine, but not DSL-wise – all that took quite a while.
The guy at the Deutsche Telekom support hotline told me, the 7270 would not talk VDSL, and my access was configured to be VDSL. He is right.
I was almost on my way to borrow a splitter and a VDSL modem router at the next Deutsche Telekom shop.
I replaced the device’s power supply with a switchable one, that I have on stock. Why didn’t I try that in the first place? Well … – are you always instantly aware of all your available options?
7390 started up fine again. That made me happy again, at least on the level of happiness before last night’s disaster.
Contacted AVM regarding the broken power supply.
I purchased the 7390 in May 2010.
Will they tell me, the 7390’s power supply is too old to be replaced by them for free? Not unlikely.
But they could be nice and take my engagement into account, that I showed, when the dradio underscore URLs broke the Internet radio modules in their phone and WIFI repeater products.
Update 2012-03-14: AVM sent me a free replacement for the broken power supply.
