I just want to comment that group study is awesome. I do not post much but
I do scour the archives daily and read every post. I just had a
catastrophic problem... My next lab date is in Singapore on Monday and I
have taken a few days vacation to to get some last minute lab time in. Got
up at 5 A.M this morning and was cruising along just fine when all of a
sudden my 2511 terminal server started rebooting over and over again with
just three lines of text. I freaked out. I mean I really need this study
time and the term serv is the key piece of my lab. Anyway I browsed group
study first before doing anything and I found the below post. I never would
have guessed the power supply, I would have first started reloading ios
images, changing flash and dram. However I have a spare 2501(on board
memory problem) and I pulled the power supply from it and installed it into
the 2511. Worked great. Anyway I just want to thank Paul for having group
study and I want to thank Norma Shutt for that invaluable piece of info
below. Saved my butt this morning for sure....

----If you keep getting the same three lines over and over, try replacing the power supply. I had the same thing happen to one of my 2505s earlier this week. A new power supply fixed it just fine.
My router would boot up just fine and operate normally for an hour or two (as long as the router had previously been turned off for several hours) and then it would start cycling through the same three-line sequence. The green status light would cycle on and off in conjunction with the three lines repeating in the console window. The fan never lost any power so I didn't initially think of the power supply, but since the other symptoms indicated a problem with power, I decided to replace it and see if it fixed it. It did. It's been a happy router ever since.
