Hi Dennis, did you write mem (copy run start..?)

use the command wr mem then reload and see what happens.

Check the config register, for most models it should be 0x2102 . If not then change it and reload.

[Simon Leigh · Accepted solution]

Once the router has booted do a 'sh ver'

At the end it should show the config register which should be 0x2102

It it is not run the 'configuration-register 0x2102' then save the config by doing a 'wr mem'

Reload the router at all should be good.

this was the issue iv'e apparently got.

i ran first the wr mem from Tom Watts, but remembered that there also could be an conf register problem.

so i changed it into 0x2102 and all was well again

thanks everyone for the help
