Connect a Terminal or Computer to the Console Port

Connect a terminal or computer to the Console port either to configure the
software by using the configuration software or to troubleshoot problems with
the router.

To connect a terminal or computer to the console port on the router, follow these
steps:

1. Connect the RJ-45 end of a DB-9-to-RJ-45 serial cable to the RJ-45

Console port on the router.

2. Connect the DB-9 end of the DB-9-to-RJ-45 serial cable to the COM

port on your computer.

3. To communicate with the router, start a terminal emulator application,

such as Putty or Tereterm.

You can download the free program at
