I'm fairly certain, but not 100% positive, that the 2500 series routers
cannot do xmodem image transfers like the 2600 series can.  Check out
this link:

http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/471/13.html 

Make sure the IP addresses on your ethernet port and the laptop are in
the same subnet, and then maybe check your cable.  Since they're
directly connected you shouldn't need the default gateway command but it
can't hurt.

That's exactly the command that I forgot to type on the router prior to
the 
upgrade. I have a X-over cable b/w the router and the tftp server(95 
laptop).
NO, I cannot ping the tftp at the Router(boot)> prompt Nor can I ping
the 
router from the tftp. Any ideas?
Can I setup the #ip default-gateway command at the
Router(boot)> prompt(once I am able to ping-if that's possible?)
I am also doing a search on CCO but am not having much luck.
Please advise.
Thank you.
Kind regards,
