I have a ASG 120 that originally ran 6.x. I recently upgraded to 7.101, using the described method of booting to a USB-connected CD and doing a fresh install. It works OK most of the time, and I have a small number of users (typically under 10 at a time). I do not use web proxy, only SMTP proxy with AV and SPAM filtering. I have noticed a few times users tell me they can't get to a web site. When that happens, I can't log in to WebAdmin. After a reboot, all is well again. I just wonder if this hardware is too weak to handle 7.x properly. It only has 256MB of RAM, and as I understand it, that can not be upgraded (which seems crazy to me...)
Thanks for any experiences others may have with this...

No need to go back; contact your reseller or support, they should allow you to upgrade that unit to 512MB of RAM (takes a standard PC133 512MB DIMM). They shipped the older ones originally with 256MB when V6 was current product, and sometime before Version 7 went beta they started shipping them all with 512MB. If you don't have too many users behind that unit (say about 15 or so) you should be fine; I have several customers running these with 512MB in it.
