Lou, I would return the unit to 3Com.  Sounds like the power supply is defective.

>From a photo I have seen of a disassembled unit, they have a large capacitor as 
part of the power supply.  I presume this is what gives the long hold up time 
during a battery change.  Sounds like something in that circuit is bad.
