Just to be sure: with "go on line" business do you mean the "connect" button in hyperterminal... or am I missing something?
"connect"
Note, since many of the common terminal emulators are intended to talk to modems they may have an intialization string that they send when you press "connect".

The easy way to deal with that (without changing the terminal's setup) is:
Connect the USB end of cable to computer -
Start the terminal emulator -
Press/Perform "connect" (let it send to the empty end of the cable) -
Now connect the serial end of the cable to the device.

I will start a "Serial Cable" thread RSN to suppliment what has already been posted.
