Check your manual for the proper break sequence. Just pressing the break key does not always work .

It depends on what kind of OS your running. I've noticed some problems using Windows 98 hyperterminal for example.<br>Anyway here are a couple of tips you could try:<br><b>Software&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Platform&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;OS&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Try This </b><br>MicroPhone Pro&nbsp;&nbsp;IBM Compatible&nbsp;&nbsp;Windows&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Ctrl-Break&nbsp;&nbsp;<br>ProComm Plus&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;IBM Compatible&nbsp;&nbsp;DOS or Windows Alt-b&nbsp;&nbsp;<br>Telix&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;IBM Compatible&nbsp;&nbsp;DOS&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Ctrl-End&nbsp;&nbsp;<br>Telnet to Cisco IBM Compatible&nbsp;&nbsp;N/A&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Ctrl-]&nbsp;&nbsp;<br>Terminal&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;IBM Compatible&nbsp;&nbsp;Windows&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Break&nbsp;&nbsp;<br>Terminal&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;IBM Compatible&nbsp;&nbsp;Windows&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Ctrl-Break&nbsp;&nbsp;<br>Hyperterm ver. 595160IBM Compatible&nbsp;&nbsp;Win 95&nbsp;&nbsp;Ctrl-F6-Break&nbsp;&nbsp;<br>VT 100 EmulationData General&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;N/A&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;F16&nbsp;&nbsp;<br>Windows NT&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;IBM Compatible&nbsp;&nbsp;Windows&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Break-F5&nbsp;&nbsp;<br>Windows NT&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;IBM Compatible&nbsp;&nbsp;Windows&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Shift-F5&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><br>Regards<br><br>Lars<br>

With regards to Cisco routers, it's been a long known fact that the control-break sequence doesn't work. It's a bug in Microsoft's operating system. To fix this problem you have to download HyperTerminal 5.0 from the Hilgraeve site (free) @ <A HREF="

has saved me countless hours of frustration, and it will do the same for you.
