I would reboot the Netserver and see if that fixes the problem as it sounds like a packet bus issue (t1 passes the call to the modem but the modem cannot talk to the netserver).
I did power cycle the whole unit last night to no avail. I did have like 12 calls up while other modems were turning red and giving dead air. I soft busied both T1s, but the remaining calls all ended up getting dropped with Lost-Carrier within 30 minutes. According to Radius logs, 5 of the calls dropped within 2 seconds. One person did call and complain about being dropped. After reading your message, I decided to check the modem assignments in the Netserver. The Netserver seems to think modems are assigned to slot 1. I think I'll try wiping the NVRAM in the Netserver and reconfiguring it.

What's the lastest on this code? Is it nessasary for anything other than the new features such as ospf? Also, it took 3 times trying to load it through tcm before it actually was there. Very strange, no errors - the download windows just went away and the wasn't there on the reboot. After the 3rd try the tcm window gave the normal "must reboot for the code to take effect and after rebooting it was there. Never had this happen before. odd to say the least.

OSPF is still a bit rough...I wouldn't recommend anyone really betting their life on it yet. :) Maybe in the next release...not really sure if there are any improvements in the works for the next release on OSPF yet.
Also, it took 3 times trying to load it through tcm before it actually was there. Very strange, no errors - the download windows just went away and the wasn't there on the reboot.
Sounds like a problem with TCM or windows actually. Another possibility (and this works much faster) is to use the tftp client or server capability of the Arc directly to get the code to the Arc. tftp the dmf file directly to the arc (the arc can function as either a tftp server or client...choose whichever is more convenient for you :), and make the filename (either upload as, or rename after its uploaded) netserve.dmf. When you reboot the Arc, it should see this file and extract it for the new code and install it during boot.
Are the hidden commands still there with release? If so, anyone rember how to enable them. I can't for the life remember.

I" ll throw it online tommorrow and see if works ok. Still am baffled by the _show com deal.

What is going on with TCM now? It seems like whenever I install this on a fresh install of Windows NT it has all sorts of problems. It doesn't crash until I go into Performance Menu. Anyone else have this sort of experience? Never had the problem with win95/98 just NT.

Short answer, start it from a DOS prompt. Don't ask why... Charles On Wed, 8 Dec 1999, Brian Gordon wrote:
