FTD stuck on empty prompt

Hey there!

Hey there!
I have an issue, im stuck at an empty prompt after connect ftd.
I am connected remotely via a terminal server to the console line.
I know it is a stupid question, but how do you press shift + ~ (as I know, that is the escape character)?
I dont have a native tilde on any keyboard layout I know, and it does not accept it with altgr+my button.
I also tried ascii octal \017\176 via securecrt and send BREAK via putty, no luck.
Thanks!

What model?  Some terminal servers cannot properly pass escape characters.  What is the terminal server?

FPR 3105 and a Lantronix EDS16PR terminal server

Thanks! Unfortunately when I do the shift + tilde (altgr + * (next to enter) in my case),  nothing happens.
I can type tilde without the shift, but it looks like the shift + altgr is too much for the terminal server.
And if I try any layout where it is not altgr but shift, it is simply just typing tilde and thats it.
Is there any other way to break out of this devilish cycle (without reboot)?
Also a strange thing that if i type something to the session (eg. plsletmego, then hit enter, then I got plsletmego in a new line afterwards).
Thanks!

I think we narrowed it down to be a problem of the terminalserver, but I will keep the thread posted. (And hopefully eliminiate that terminalserver in 1v1 hand-to-hand combat.)
