How could HyperTermianl affect your ability to copy a file from the router to the PC? HyperTerminal just lets you see and control what's happening on the router. It's just a Terminal. I guess newer versions do Telnet too, but it's still just acting like a Terminal. (I don't use HyperTerminal anymore. I use SecureCRT. It's much better.) You can probably leave it out of the equation though. Priscilla > > However, in the past few moments, someone else wrote to me and > inquired > about my hub (10/100 or 100!) -- mine is 100 only.
