HI
I had a similar problem with a 2500 series router. To get around the ctrl-brea
k problem, you can do the following:

Connect to the router using the following console settings

1200 baud rate
No parity
8 data bits
1 stop bit
No flow control

You no longer see any output on your screen. This is normal.

Power cycle (switch off and then on) the router and press the spacebar for 10-1
5 seconds. This generates a signal similar to the break sequence.

Disconnect your terminal and reconnect with a 9600 baud rate. You should now be
 in ROM Monitor mode.

You should be able to change your config-register settings now.

Hope this helps

Kevin
