so i brought my router to mexico so that i could connect online however when i tried installing it i didnt do it exactly right and smoke started coming out of the wire what is this and why did this happen
Huh? Wireless router smoking?
Who knows, it's Mexico. Maybe a power surge.

You probably need a voltage regulator (which might be too late for your episode).
Reply:Mexico uses the same power specs as the US, so that shouldn't be a problem. Maybe all the moving around during transportation caused something to short. Or there might be a short in the power outlet you used (try a surge strip 1st).
Bottom line, toss the router. Electronics and smoke don't make a good combonation, could be a fire hazard.
