Re: (ASCEND) Missing modem cards


 Yea, Same here, many times I reboot maxes to regain modem packs, It
hasn't been that bad since the 6.0 tree, But man it use to be real
bad, It's like playing Russian roulette. Bounce , loose 2 modems gain 1, 
bounce, loose 1 gain 2, etc..

But if you notice Ascend has seemed to change the way modems come to
POST because it takes a lot longer now for a max to reboot I'm guessing
it tries to come to post a few times before it fails.
