Hello again,

I did connect finally connect to my router but from a NT box.
Could not spend the time to find the serial communication packages.
seyon refuses to work with all the following devices.

ttyS0 for com1
ttyS1 for com2
ttyS2 for com3
ttyS3 for com4.

So, I connected the cable in the NT box and hyperterminal established
the connection. Once I get the configuration straight, I will use the
LAN connection to telnet to it.

Thanks to all those who replied.
