Perhaps verify your console settings... Sometimes RTS/CTS or XON/XOFF flow
control mismatches can cause this...

Subject: [nsp] Cisco 2501 will not respond via console

Hi,
 
I have just received 4 2501 routers from an eBay purchase. He said they were
tested and were working fine when shipped. I have two that work fine and two
that have the exact same problem. They will not respond via the console. I'm
using the same cisco recomended settings for the console for all routers,
and same console cable.And all routers show boot sequence. But when the two
that has a problem finishes booting, it will not respond to my keyboard
strokes. It sticks at the question about entering the setup mode. I can even
during boot ctrl-break out to rom monitor but after that it will not respond
to keystrokes. Any idea's? Thanks...
