Paul -- Thanks for the tip.
And to the rest of the Group -- don't ignore using an AGS+ for Frame Relay in your home lab. It is a cheap alternative to the 2520 series. Admittedly, I was looking for a money saving option and although it's a bit noisy -- it works. It would be nice if all of us had lotto winnings so we could buy the top of the line. But remember the object here is to get some hands on experience -- it doesn't necessarily mean that we have to go bnakrupt in the process. For me, so far I have nine routers (7-2500 series [incl 2511] and 2-AGS+) + 1 1201 Catalyst. I've spent about $2500-3000. While that's a large sum for many -- take it a piece or two at a time and you'll get there. $200/$300 mo. is a whole lot easier to absrob than all in one chunk. Also it can help to sell the spouse (whether it be husband or wife!!).

[7:39921] Greg, Radio Shack has a handful of ON / OFF toggle switches that will do the job nicely. You may need to shore up the diameter gap between the Radio Shack on/off switch and the hole in the AGS chassis with washers, but it's a nice quick fix.
