Keep in mind that neither the 1601 or the 2509 are beefy routers. You may be hitting a practical limitation. You may want to verify that CEF is enabled (or at least fast switching if CEF isn't supported).
How does your router CPU utilization look? Paul Carter wrote: > I have a 1601 router and a 2509 to practice with.
