Hi Seb,
Thanks for the response.
I am struggling:
- Using Putty and a USB to Serial converter I bought earlier today.
- Converter seems to have loaded correctly
- I think Putty is configured correctly
- Putty opens COM6 successfully
- I CANNOT get the router to go into ROMMON mode. Pressing "CTRL-Pause/Break" or "Pause/Break" or "Fn+Break" and every other combination on keyboard does nothing, and using Putty "Special Command/Break"also does nothing....
