Disable the flow control in Hyperterminal. Chuck Church wrote: All, I picked up a used 2501, but I'm having some problems.

Fixed - 2500 - Doesn't accept console input
Thanks Brad, Brian, and Darrin. I tried Hyperterm from NT, and it worked. I eventually got it to work under 98. On the port configuration, I went to advanced, and unchecked the 'Use FIFO buffers' This particular 2501 had a system board dated 1993. My other ones were '96 and '98. Must be the older ones don't like fast bursts of characters. Thanks again. Chuck Church CCNP, MCNE, MCSE Sr. Network Engineer Magnacom Technologies 140 N.
