Router failure at Exodus...

Thus proving that weekends are the WORST time to have a major equipment
failure with no spare/backup. I kinda went through the same experience
myself this weekend...just on a much smaller scale. I've learned the
valuable lesson that when it comes to your single point of failure...it's
well worth the additional expense to have a hot spare. This applies to
all mission critical hardware. Not being critical of Exodus...just stating
the facts.
