Ok, i have a 2610 and two ehternet ports in use. everything works fine; NAT works, i can ping both interfaces, i can telnet, internet connectivity etc. But there is one slight problem, every so often the router will deciede to relaod itself and enter the 'rommon' mode. i cant figure out why, it does not do it at a regular interval either. it seems to be at random. maybe its the power strip or power cable... idk

my current config:

any suggestions?
 
Hi, how do you come out of rommon mode? Also can you post a show flash: and check the configuration register value from show ver? It should be 0x2102

If we manage to configure the router to come up on itself then we will be able to tackle the reson for the sudden reloads....
 
I can exit 'rommon' mode by entering the command "reset" then "boot"

my Configuration Register is 0x80C2... how do i make it 0x2102?
 
R> en
R# config t
R(config)# config-register 0x2102
R(config)# end
R# wr
R# reload

Your done
