I strongly suspect you are right.  I had a GSM card, and it would reboot whilst 
trying to log 
onto the GSM network.  The thing was trying to draw over 3 amps for a few 
milliseconds.  I 
added a 5A regulator to power just the GSM modem card, thus keeping the CPU 
card away 
from any power dips.  Worked fine.
