When I log onto my 2811 router (IOS Ver 12.3(8)T8 it dumps me into enable mode automatically. Is there a fix for this? Thanks for any help you can provide.

There are a couple of things that can result in the session going directly into enable mode instead of into user mode. I think the most likely one is a configuration on the vty lines which specifies privilege level. I suggest that you check the configuration of the 2811 and look under the vty lines for privilege level 15. If it is there remove it and your sessions should start in user mode.

It is also possible that if you are using aaa to authenticate and authorize that the user ID you are using has been configured to automatically give enable access. But I am guessing that the issue is the privilege level on the vty lines.

Look at the configuration for a username xxx privilege 15 line and change the privilege level.
