I would check the cable you are using ? Is it the console cable that came with the router ?

What do you see on your terminal emulator (Hyperterm or similar), when you hit the return key (blank or junk characters ??)

Sankar.

I unpacked cafelesss the twho yellow cables... how can i know wich one is the console cable?

thanks

The console cable is usually a light blue color..

Paresh

thanks i found the cable and i setup the default route ip address and it is working like a charm now!

thanks...

only one more question...: when i go to the router admin sofware (SDM) and go to Firewall and ACL > Instant messaging, it says that i need the new IOS sofware and that i can download it from cisco.com, and when i go to http://www.cisco.com/public/sw-center/ it says that i need to logon... but is supposly that i am loggen on because i am in the forum and i have my username and password... do i need a special kind of account in order to download the OIS sofware....?

thanks

CCO account have different privileges, depending upon whether you have a valid smartnet contract added under the id, or if you work for a Cisco partner, or if you are a CCIE. Then there is guest access which is what I believe you are having. With guest CCO account you wont be able to download all IOS images. You need to have smartnet maintenance contract for your router and then add the contract under your CCO login to gain privileged access to CCO Software center.

Here is a picture of how it usually looks like.

One end has a db9 connector while the other end has a rj 45 connector.

Sometimes you may find both ends with rj 45 connector and a separate db9 to rj45 adapter also incuded. (old router packages used to come in this fashion)
