WX1200 won't receive any commands over vt100 program

[justin1390]

I have a wx1200 wireless access point manager, I have it connected directly to my computer and have putty installed. When I connect to COM 1 (the port it's connected to) with 9600 bps „ 8 bits „ 1 stop „ No parity „ Hardware flow control disabled, all I get is blank screen and I can't type anything. If I unplug my manager and plug it back in while connected to it in putty it outputs the startup information then it asks for a username and I still can't type anything. Is there something I'm doing wrong?
