Hi Sultan,

You can only copy the IOS from the router to your PC by using TFTP or FTP and not console port.  in order to do that you need to use an Ethernet interface on your router and connect it to your PC.  The 2811 comes with 2 10/100 Ethernet ports.

Download a TFTP server to your PC.

Connect your PC to one of the Ethernet ports on the router.

Go to the network property of the NIC for your PC and configure a an IP address.  You can use 192.168.1.2 255.255.255.0

open the TFTP server

Then login to the route via console and configure the Ethernet port with ip address 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0

ping the TFTP server from the router ping 192.168.1.2

Ping the router from your PC 192.168.1.2

if it looks good, from the router copy flash: tftp and follow the instruction from there
