Press ctrl ]

This will take you bake to the telnet prompt, the type 

send brk

press enter

That will do it (works for a 2503 via a Dec Terminal server anyway)

No, sorry but that does not work. When i start an traceroute
on a cisco and she get stuck, the send brk does nothing.

My suggestion to this problem is to reconfigure the Cisco box a
little. What I have done is I reconfigured the box a little so 
that it accepts Ctrl-C as an escape (break) character.

Just add the escape-character commands to your Cisco's 
configuration and if it gets stuck, hit Ctrl-C fast a couple of 
times. I have learnt also to ping first and traceroute only if 
ping says the target is alive :)

Here's an example, Ctrl-A = 1, Ctrl-B = 2, Ctrl-C = 3, etc.

line con 0
 escape-character 3
line vty 0 4
 escape-character 3
