Not true at all. Are you going to be doing plain vanilla v.90 with IP
services only? For the most part, the AS5300 is not being made as of
last year and will not have any more support after Dec, 2007 if I am
not mistaken. Max ram is 128MB but you can run just fine with 64MB &
16MB flash. I recommend the newest IOS 12.2(17a) and 2.9.4.0 firmware
if you just want stability and most bugs fixed.

Not sure what your saturation could have been. Give me some info on
your 5300s in the way of IOS. It may be an anomaly or bug manifesting
itself.
