    Resetting a router to manufacturer default

    We have a 2524 at work, but I believe process should be similar. <br> 1.) You'll need to make or buy a rollover (not a crossover) cable. From RJ45 on one end to other RJ45, the wires progressively roll over, 1=8, 2=7, etc.<br> 2.)You'll also need a RJ45 to DB9(female) adapter...

    Need help: connection lock-up after log-in

    harpo,<br> Thanks for the suggestion. I didn't even think of disabling it through bios (duh! my inexperience is showing).<br> That worked and allowed me to install the other NIC, but now I can't even get onto the wire. I ping 127.0.0.1 okay (I read that this verifies that IP stack is alive?)...

    Need help: connection lock-up after log-in

    Wonder if anyone can help. After telnetting to remote unix (aix) server, my connection locks up after entering password. Login and password are valid since I can access server from other stations (we have a mixture of PCs with NICs, and dumb terms going through Digi port servers.) I know...

    AIX advice for a newbie?
