You'll need the 12.2(8r) boot rom for the router to use 256MB.

No worries, I went through the same troubles starting out! Good people on here, they all seem to want to help. Searching Cisco website, you don't always get reliable info there.
I was lucky enough to get a 2621XM off of Ebay for a steal, then had to do some reconnaissance. Sometimes you can sneak a real deal!

You are kind guy captobvious, and that's true that all ppl here are willing and eager to help, same as u...2621XM? Thats the exact Model I'm trying to get on Ebay, but man they are too pricey! I'm trying to get any empty one for a reasonable low price then boost it myself with the Max Memory and Flash and wic-2t card, but it will still need a Boot ROM upgrade, this will make the price to fly more, suffer once and relief forever... Such a router with this picky specification wish It won't exceede $120...

It is the same for all 2600XM routers. You don't actually need 256MB if you're not running 12.4T and you don't need that for CCENT/CCNA.

That's true tiersten, but the point is that I'm not living in the U.S, my Sister in law is there, I created a Paypal account with my name but with her address, quite illegal I believe
, shipping from there to me will cost at least another $100, so I'm trying to get the best I can
