Console stuck

[Ed Lo]

Hi,

I'm connected to the router console but, it always seems to get stuck and just sit there any way I can fix this?

Hello,

how are you connected, though the console port, aux port, or vty (Telnet) ? Can you generate the output of 'show line' ?

It's connected through the console port. It starts up like normal then sits there I can't do anything.

Ed,

which emulator are you using, HyperTerm, Putty, Teraterm ? Make sure you use speed 9600, data bits 8, stop bits 1, parity none, flowcontrol hardware.

That of course assumes you are using the correct cable:

Putty and the settings your mentioned were the problem they got set back to default. Thanks
