Terminal Emulator and COM Port Problems

Problem: Screen continuously puts out garbage characters.

Solution: The likely cause of this problem is a baud rate mismatch between the terminal
emulator and the router. The default baud rate is 115,200 bps. Follow these steps if you set
your terminal emulator to this rate and still get garbage characters:

1

Turn off the power to the router.

2

Press the spacebar of your terminal emulator.

3

Turn on the power while continuing to press the spacebar. This will allow the router
to autodetect the baud rate setting.

4

When the Flash Utility appears, select 5. Run Bridge to continue to boot the router.

Note: Some terminal emulators don’t immediately change to the new
baud rate settings, and you have to exit and restart the emulator to use the
new settings.
