Connection between Stratix III FPGA board and PS over Hyperterminal

Hi, I have a question about the connection between the Stratix III FPGA board and Hyperterminal from Windows. How can I communicate about Hyperterminal with the board. Why I want to do this?...

As I said, this won't work unless you reconfigure the MaxII device (and now I'm thinking you will also need to reprogram the EEPROM connected to the USB chip to change what it is advertizing). This isn't an easy task.

I strongly suggest you go to Ethernet instead, you'll save yourself a lot of trouble.
