Unable to connect with AP7960

[BillP]

Hi again,

I am trying to connect with an AP7960 so that I can reset the IP on it.

I am using a Lenovo ThinkPad T420, Win7 Enterprise SP1, with a USB to serial cable connected to the serial to RJ-11 plug. I have tried connecting via Putty at every possible baud rate, but I still just get a blank (black) Putty screen.

I have also tried plugging it directly into the APC switch that is connected to my ISX manager. I get a link light but no data transfer. So I assume that DHCP can't grab a hold of it. Can someone please point me in the right direction?

Thanks

-Mike

Nevermind, turns out I had flowcontrol set to "on/off" instead of "none" problem solved.
