7-2 Administration Guide
A screen similar to the following Main Menu appears:
If you do not see the Main Menu, verify that:
■ If you are using a serial connection, that your serial port speed is the same as the Netopia 4753’s default
9600 baud, for first use.
■ The computer used to view the console screen has its serial port connected to the Netopia 4753’s
Console port or an Ethernet connection to one of its Ethernet ports. See “Connecting a Console Cable to
Your Device” on page 6-3 or “Connecting through a Telnet Session” on page 6-2.
■ Telnet or the terminal emulation software is configured for the recommended values.
■ If you are connecting via the Console port, your computer’s serial port is not being used by another device,
such as an internal modem, or an application. Turn off all other programs (other than your terminal
emulation program) that may be interfering with your access to the port.
■ You have entered the correct password, if necessary. Your Netopia 4753’s console access may be
password protected from a previous configuration. See your system administrator to obtain the password.
See Appendix A, “Troubleshooting,” for more suggestions.
■ If all you see is a pound sign (#), you are in the command line interface. Hit Control-N to exit to the Main
Menu.
