I don't see a registry setting for this router, but if I were to guess, I would say that this particular router has some console port settings that don't match the other routers, and therefore your HyperTerminal settings.
IIRC, you need to experiment and find the right baud setting. you should be able to do this easily enough. once you have the correct settings, then you can get in, peek at the register ( sh ver - 0x2zzz ) and go through the steps to change to 0x2102 HTH ""Kevin Hafner"" wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... > I have never seen this before, any help is greatly appreciated.
