I have been struggling with having to mannually power up my router machines for the past three months. I am in Iraq, and the darn local-national have generated power, hence they have to shut down the huge deisel generators, frequently. I was in school for computer engineering prior to getting activated, so I have some knowledge of capacitors, and circuit theory, however, obviously not enough to grant me the ability to solve this problem by myself :) I am about to get back to the states, so I will try the capacitor trick when I get back, however, the grounded wire solution may be the solution that is most viable, right now. Thanks again. -- Respectfully, M.G.W. System: PCChips K7SOM MB AMD K7 Pro 1800 256MB RAM 40GB HD 10/100 NIC FreeBSD-5.2.1-RELEASE
