Establishing a Telnet Connection
This method will open a Telnet connection to the Terminal Configurator on port 23, which
is the default for most Telnet programs. However, this works only after the wireless bridge
has been assigned a TCP/IP address. If you need to assign an IP address to the bridge, you
will need to use either the Windows Bridge Manager or the Terminal Configurator using a
direct serial connection.

NOTE: If, after performing this step, the wireless bridge does not respond with
the configuration mode Main Menu, verify that there is not a cable problem by
pressing the Enter key on the PC and observing the Serial LED. Each time the key
is pressed, the Serial LED should blink faintly and quickly. If the Serial LED does not
blink, there may be a problem in the cable connection. If the Serial LED blinks
when the Enter key is pressed and the unit does not respond, check to see if the
serial configuration is set to 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit.
