I just lost my third c3550 in only 3 months. I have a total of about 18 of them, all purchased in May of '03. This is a failure rate exceeding 15%. Not good at all.
Cisco has replaced the first two under warranty, and I have no reason to believe they won't do so for the third. But, this is getting old.
The symptom is dead power supply. This third one was even in a different building, so no common failure points. Both network closets are relatively cool. (certainly compared to others I have that sit at 85 degrees).
Has anyone else been experiencing this?
