Ive had this router for about 8 months and it worked perfectly fine at the beginning. One day I updated the firmware to some zyxel firmware and that worked fine but I didnt really like it, so i went back to default and ever since then I plug it in and it doesnt connect to the net, I can't get an IP address from it it says "Limited Connectivity" I manually input 192.168.0.2 as the client computer with the default gateway 192.168.0.1 and it still doesnt work.

I figure it wouldnt be hard for me to do it with the manager's port but i guess theres something wrong with something because I dont think this is usual. I know it's not the computer because ive tried on 3 different computersand the same thing happened. All windows XP pro. But look at the attachment right after I reset the router. Can anyone tell me why its not in english or if theres a way to make it readable? Or any other suggestions or walkthroughs. Id really appreciate the help.
thank you

sorry i was in a rush and it didnt make much sense. basically. why when i reset the router while its plugged into the manager port to my computer does it show up in wierd symbols and completely unreadable in HyperTerminal?

Is there any other way/terminal program you would recommend me? I couldnt have blown allthe software in the router over uploading firmware incorrectly could it?
