I too have suffered the RLOD too. Given my needs, I replaced the router with a Turris Router <https://www.turris.cz/en/> . Its not as powerful, but has far better support and good enough for my needs.

regards

Robert

Hey soekris-tech,

I bought 5 net6501-70 servers just over 3 years ago to be used as routers
and utility servers.

They were mostly flawless for that time, but over the last few months 3 of
them have died with the red error light and no BIOS post information.

Sometimes they will boot up if you unplug them for a few days and then try again, but they flake out after a few days of running and then won't boot.

I contacted support, and they confirmed that they were all out of warranty
and they were likely not repairable. :-(

Has anyone else started seeing failures of their net6501 servers?

Mine /just/ died. Tried a second PSU that I know works, and still nada. RLOD (Red Light Of Death). It was working, then I changed something and rebooted, and it wouldn't boot up. So I've replaced it with a VM on another box. It's my firewall so I needed something asap that wasn't installed on either of my
server's host-os installs.
