Serial jailbreaking help

Hey all. I recently decided to try and serial jailbreak my PW3 running a firmware that's too new to software jailbreak, and I've run into a little snag. Following this thread I got to the point where the PuTTY window shows the boot instructions and such, but I can't seem to interrupt the boot process before it boots normally.

I'm assuming PuTTY is supposed to send my inputs from the keyboard as terminal commands to the serial port, but nothing I press seems to do anything.

The connections I'm using are admittedly a little slipshod but I figure if it's showing the terminal on PuTTY it's connected well enough to work, but of course, it doesn't seem to be working 100%, but it makes me think it's something software-related.

I'm not at the computer that I've been using to do it right this moment, but I can furnish screenshots/pictures if requested.

Many thanks!
