how to connect to RB when Ehternet1 interface is disabled ?

I have disabled the Ethernet 1 port by mistake through Winbox. Now I cannot connect to routerboard thru ethernet port. I had not configured WLan yet, thus I cannot even connect to Wlan1 thru winbox and enable the Ethernet1.

I guess the only way I can connect to RB is using Console Cable.

Do let me know if there are any other ways to connect to RB.

I have never used Console cable earlier, so do give me a assistance on how to connect to console cable.

Hai fren,
so sorry, i never try with my x86 router, i used it for all my RBs when i have hard problem.
cause my Centralized AAA with PIII-500Mhz 512RAM ROS-L6 stable in v2.9.49, and until now i don't have problem about it

yes, you can remote PC using serial cable,
but maybe you have to set several settings on PC BIOS before you can use it.

Hi ;
Thanks for your reply .
could you give us an idea what we should do to the BIOS configurations ?
with best regards .

I was not successful with the console cable however, I had 2 ethernet interface in the RB so I connected to the second Ethernet port and logged in.
