Sounds like it's having problems on power up with the flash and maybe going
into ROM mode. Maybe try re-flashing the router and see if that helps.

Subject: 2501 strange problems
Anybody,
I am fairly new to this so bear with me. I couldn't find a solution from
the archives. I have a 2501 router that has worked well for me. I have two
2501 routers the connect 2 subnets. The routers are connected back to back
w/
DB60 cable (since I use them for lab). Since each 2501 has only one
ethernet,
I use router_a for one subnet, and router_b for another. This has worked
fine. However, I
have been having problems with it lately. When I start router_b, I can't
ping across subnets. I telnet into router_b through the console and see
this:
What?

If I enter a command it reverts back to:
What?

However the enable command gives me something like this:
4: 4AFC4AFC <<then I hit enter again>>
8: 4AFC4AFC <<and see this>>
If I reboot (by turning router off/on) the I get the bootstrap routine.
Everything seems OK and I can ping, etc. The hostname also shows up
correctly
(router_b). But when I first power up (I shut down everything overnight), I
get the WHAT? then just a ">". What's causing this...?
