Hi,
I've been a long time lurker on the forum and find the information invaluable.
I have recently had FTTC enabled and have the ECI /I modem, I have researched this and found it can be unlocked using the serial points on the board.
I have purchased the USB to TTL adaptor and also the pins to attach to the router. I attempted this today and was hit with a problem. I was able to connect the adaptor and using Putty could see the router going through its boot sequence and loading its firmware. It then came to the login prompt. However this is where I hit the problem that I couldn't get any keyboard input. I have tried making new connections, new terminal software and new cables however I keep hitting the same problem.
I am not sure if its the router or the serial adaptor. When time has passed the router tells me that xDSL has timed out and that it will sleep for x with the number increasing each time. I don't know if this is what's stopping me from entering anything or wither this is just normal debug text.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Declan
