Based on your inability to configure NTP and send a break to a 2500,
most of us would naturally be led to believe you cannot configure SSH
on a Cisco either. =)

Yes, you've demonstrated you can download and install an IOS image
with crypto.  Now, try using your router for basic tasks, like serial
console, while processing 3DES/Blowfish crypto without the poor
Motorola 68k CPU surging to 100% utilization and becoming really
untsable really quickly.

As they say in home country: "bueno es hablar, pero mejor es callar".
