That means your terminal strips eighth bit. '©' in UTF-8 is 0xc2 0xa9, strip bit 8 and it becomes 0x42 0x29 == "B)". I would think a router console can support 8-bit but I'm not sure, and maybe something need to be configured. Is this a serial console? Can you try plain old telnet instead, with -8 option?
