you can't download IOS from there.

Without support on the device you aren't licensed to download or even run any version of IOS other than what it was purchased with.

the main reason why i want to reload the IOS is because it never seems to save the startup-config file

I can do basic changes like label the host name or apply ip addrss to the interface then i do a

copy running-config startup-config

power off/ power on

and it wants me to configure it again. IT doesnt seem to be saving it to the nvram

check your config register. should be 2102.

The config file is saved, it's just not using it. configuration register controls this behavior.

what is your config register set to? a show version command will display it...

edit: spider-man is too fast

maybe thats my problem its 0x2142

 

[djkball]

these are 2610's also

google on how to change your config register.... it needs to be x2102

How would i had known that should be the correct config ? Did i overlook a chapter ?

apparantly.

the config-register should have been covered in the password recovery procedure.
