[edit] RS232 CONSOLE PORT ACCESS

You need a straight through cable (extension cable) 9DB Male for the NGW100 and 9DB FEMALE for your computer (maybe).

The Default settings for this port is

  • Baud = 115200
  • Bits = 8
  • Parity = None
  • Stop Bit = 1

(Press enter for a prompt)

These settings are set in the uboot config See nOOb uboot

[edit] For Linux use

  • minicom
  • GTKterm

[edit] Minicom info

Set the default settings to:

tux ~ # cat .xminirc.dfl 
# Machine-generated file - use setup menu in minicom to change parameters. 
pu port             /dev/ttyS0 
pu baudrate         115200 
pu minit            
pu mreset            
pu rtscts           No 

Or if you are using a USB to Serial adapter

tux ~ # .xminirc.usb0 
# Machine-generated file - use setup menu in minicom to change parameters. 
pu port             /dev/ttyUSB0 
pu baudrate         115200 
pu minit            
pu mreset            
pu rtscts           No 

Then you start minicom by "minicom usb0"

[edit] For Windows use

  • hyperterminal
  • term
  • putty (Now has serial port option)
