Telnet timeout/duplex change

[middee]

I have a pretty easy problem but i just dont know how to solve it. There's a cisco 827 router here, when i telnet to it, and i wait for about a minute the connection to the host is lost.

And another question, how can i change the duplex mode of an ethernet interface?

hope somebody can help

There's an exec-timeout that can be adjusted for telnet sessions:

conf t

line vty 0 4

exec-timeout <0-35791> (Timeout in minutes)

Not sure if duplex is configurable on the 827.. You can try going into config for the ethernet interface and entering either full-duplex or half-duplex, depending on what you want.

I have to change the duplex on a cisco 2600, when first booted that router i had to configure if i wanted full or half duplex. I want to know how i can change it because the interface isnt working :(

If someone thinks that aint the prob...what could it be then.

If you know the commands to change the duplex mode, plz give them. thnx!

To change the duplex setting, from enable prompt:

conf t

int e0/0

full-duplex (or half-duplex)

no shut

end

wr m
