I have a cisco 805 router and I need to configure a dial backup. My question is if I can do it using the console port.....
 
I don't know about this particular router but all other Cisco gear that I have dealt with you can connect a modem to the console port , we use this over the AUX port because you can watch the router reboot on the console port , if using a aux port you don't see anything until the router finishes loading .
