If you are using Windows NT then Hyperterm can't send a break.  You need
to get Hyperterm Private Edition which used to be free.  Don't know if
it still is.  If you can't find it there are a bunch of terminal
emulator programs that you can download which will send a break.

I've also heard that if you turn your PC on at the same time as the
router that it will automatically send a break but I've never tried it.
