Hello, I can connect to my Cisco devices but not communicate with them. I am using hyperterminal private edition and windows ME. is there anything special i have to do to get into the devices through the console port? Cables and Devices are known to be good. thank you for your time and consideration, Joe gearhart Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7&i=9477&t=9477 -------------------------------------------------- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
