Lost one a couple of weeks ago. Symptoms were when I plugged it it, the red light went on and the ethernet lights started strobing (synchronized) at a very fast rate. It never got to the bios. Various power supply swappings had no effect. Three years or so of service sounds about right.
This one also had a fan installed. The mystery continues. On Saturday, February 20, 2016 01:25:18 pm Max Parmer wrote: > I just had a net6501 die on me the past weekend, purchased in 2012.
