I just plugged in the Fast Page Mode, 72-pin with true parity and 60ns 16Mb
of memory module. The router could not load the IOS at all. So I think the
speed of the memory is different. I checked Crucial.com and found out that
the memory for 2500 series is using 72-pin Fast page mode with parity.
So according to my memory, the speed of the memory does matter. I just
don't know what is the correct speed? Mine are 60ns and it doesn't work.
Someone knows the specs for this? Thanks!
