The "OK" response is typical of a modem. Try reconfiguring Hyperterminal to use COM1 or COM2 instead.</P><P></P><P>Kevin Dorrell</P><P>Luxembourg</P><P></P></BODY></HTML> Mon, 07 Feb 2005 15:00:25 GMT https://community.cisco.com/t5/switching/help-with-my-lab/m-p/379412#M443451 Kevin Dorrell 2005-02-07T15:00:25Z Re: Help with my Lab https://community.cisco.com/t5/switching/help-with-my-lab/m-p/379413#M443453 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hello Kevin and thanks for the fast response this is killing me with needless down time trying to figure out why i cannot connect to my routers with xp and broadband cable/dsl.You said try and reconfigure hyperterminal but when i tried i get so many different com numbers, they increment up, i.e. 3,4,5,6, etc.Now what? My desktop is a dell diminsion 8400 brand new.</P></BODY></HTML> Mon, 07 Feb 2005 18:57:04 GMT https://community.cisco.com/t5/switching/help-with-my-lab/m-p/379413#M443453 blacksayien 2005-02-07T18:57:04Z Re: Help with my Lab https://community.cisco.com/t5/switching/help-with-my-lab/m-p/379414#M443455 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P></P><P>I can only guess, so try each one in turn. COM3 definitely seems to be your internal modem. One of them will be the serial connector - usually it's COM1 or COM2.</P><P></P><P>Kevin Dorrell</P><P>Luxembourg</P><P></P></BODY></HTML> Mon, 07 Feb 2005 19:05:17 GMT https://community.cisco.com/t5/switching/help-with-my-lab/m-p/379414#M443455 Kevin Dorrell 2005-02-07T19:05:17Z Re: Help with my Lab https://community.cisco.com/t5/switching/help-with-my-lab/m-p/379415#M443456 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Thank you Kevin, and i will try all of them,and let you know what happend</P></BODY></HTML> Mon, 07 Feb 2005 20:09:41 GMT https://community.cisco.com/t5/switching/help-with-my-lab/m-p/379415#M443456 blacksayien 2005-02-07T20:09:41Z Re: Help with my Lab https://community.cisco.com/t5/switching/help-with-my-lab/m-p/379416#M443457 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>hey Kevin guess what i got it up and running.the problem was i was connected to another computer via broadband/cable/dsl with only one connection,so i finally decided to unhook my desktop and reconfigure the com port (3) and it worked like a charm,so it must be my internet connection.Now if i want to connect using my internet connection and givin the past problems what would you suggest? thanks</P></BODY></HTML> Wed, 09 Feb 2005 18:45:06 GMT https://community.cisco.com/t5/switching/help-with-my-lab/m-p/379416#M443457 blacksayien 2005-02-09T18:45:06Z
