Troubleshooting router reboots

Hey Techies,

I have a remote router bouncing in the middle of the night, and I cannot determine why. It's on a UPS.

Logging shows nothing.
Syslogs show everything coming up, but not the reboot itself.

Any ideas on where else to look?
Anyone think CiscoWorks has anything that might help?
How about Orion... anyone used it for troubleshooting such a problem?

Preciate any thoughts.

    have you checked the ups? how many times did it reboot? if the router has been stable with the same version of code i would look at the power supply on it or some other hardware failure that would force the router to reload

    Try show version to see what the reason was for the last reboot, could be power on, or possibly a software problem.

    The reason from the sh ver was:
    Last reset from system-reset.

    Does that indicate the switch was reloaded?
