    Hi Jack,

    Antivirus software and network issues are just a few of the possible reasons why this issue is happening. To help resolve the issue, we suggest following the possible solutions below:

    Solution 1: netsh Winsock reset Method

    • Open Command Prompt(Admin).
    • Type netsh Winsock reset, then press Enter.
    • Restart your computer.
    Solution 2: Disable your Antivirus

    If you have any enabled antivirus program, we recommend disabling them temporarily to check if the issue will be resolved by disabling them.

    Solution 3: Check the Internet Proxy Settings

    • Type Internet Options in the search bar, then press
      Enter
      .
    • Go to the Connections tab.
    • Deselect the Use a proxy server for your LAN option there if it is ticked.
    • Click OK.

    If the issue still persists even after performing the steps we provided, we recommend connecting to other network provider to further isolate the issue.

    Keep us in the loop with the result.

    How to factory reset Cisco 1700 Router

    Hopefully I can help you here....its a very common thing to happen.


    First, I take it you dont know the passwords for console access or telnet/ssh?

    I will assume that these devices belong to you.

    step 1. Plug a cisco console cable into a serial port on your pc
    step 2. Plug other end into Cisco console port
    step 3. Using hyperterm or putty or similar connect to the serial port
    step 4. boot router, and make sure you clearly can see the output (this confirms you have good serial comms)
    step 5. if this fails, adjust the comm port settings (9600, 8,1,n are the default)
    step 6. now you have to do the only hard part...send the break command:

    Break command list: Break Commands

    Go down the list and match your OS and SW and try the sequence suggested.

    If this fails several times do what I do: Install putty (free) and then to send a break so you can get into rommom just hit "ctrl-a b".
