John,

I would suspect the little wall wart power supply. some of those 
routers work from 12 volts. Radio shack has a whole series of 
adapters and replacement ends that can connect to a DC power cord. 
Been using those in my work building and installing IP cameras. into 
enclosures.
You might try connecting to a 12 volts supply if the router operates 
on 12 volts, many linksys do.
I don't know of a good quiet one. I know my cell phone recharger sure 
raises the noise when its plugged in connected to the phone or not.
