cisco 2611 reset

[jeffmoss26]

Hey guys-
I've got a Cisco 2611 router that I'm trying to reset the passwords on. I bought the router used. When I power the router on and hit control-break, it does nothing. I've tried HyperTerminal as well as PuTTY with the same results. On my laptop, the pause and break key are the same, I also tried control-function-break and it does nothing.
Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

Nevermind, switched computers and it is working now. Persistence is the key

I know you've solved this already, but I'll post anyway. I use TeraTerm for console stuff, ctrl + b is break on there.
