Oh dear, not the hyperterminal thread again, this was my first thought as i have read the original question. I agree, there are many execellent terminal emulators out there. But just imagine that you go to a customer and have to use one of their computers to rescue a router. Wanna ask the customer to download xxx-term that you can work with ? Chances are very good that hyperterminal is on the customers computer, so we should know how to use it ... To issue a break signal with genuine Hyperterminal you can use this method: Connect as usual to the router and set a very low baudrate in hyperterm. I use 110 as example. Now just press a few different keys repeatedly. Thies issued the break signal. Now switch back to 9600 bits per second and continue the usual procedure. hth Reinhold -- Reinhold Fischer [EMAIL PROTECTED] CCNP/SunCSA/HP Certified Consultant for Network Management TechRec wrote: >Hi > >I've heard that HyperTerminal is not good for connecting to the console port >on Cisco routers.
