If an ADAM fails to boot at the very first step:
"attaching to network..." ...." Timeout "
The problem probably is that the "aspppls" process is not running.
Search for this process with:
"ps -t term/N", where N is 0 for marigold or 1 for cosmos
If it isn't there, it will restart if the modem carrier drops and is
brought back, which can be accomplished by cycling power to the freewave
at the site.  (Obviously, this can be done while in the field.)

Here is the initial configuration of 4 Freewaves before they left
for CASES.
