The exact same problem keeps happening about every 3-4 weeks on most of these 2621XM's - the FastE0/1 port "goes to sleep". When a technician goes onsite, he does a shutdown/no shutdown and everything starts working again for 3-4 weeks. At first we thought this was the equipment the 2621XM's plug into but now we're starting to wonder when the same pattern is occurring over and over. At one of the sites, we swapped out the 2621XM and put an 1841 in place and so far no issues at all and it's been 5 weeks.
While I don't have an elegant fix for you, how about kron job that reloads the router every 2 week in the wee hours of the morning? If it's only a 2621XM it can't be too big of a site and likely not that critical (assumption but probably fair). A reload shouldn't be too painful. Though we are taking about a 2600 XM router. Boot time for one of them is over 10m if memory serves me correctly. I hate to use duct tape fixes like that but sometimes the simplest solution (problem avoidance) is the best overall approach.
