I remember having this issue on a Firebox a while back..  I think I switched from the serial version to the generic pc and it worked fine or it was the other way around..  If this doesn't work, post what version you are using and I'll see if I can re create it.

Try changing your settings to 115200/8/n/1. That fixed the problem for me. The instructions I've seen as 9600 or 19200 didn't work.
