deleted or disabled ? i dont think you can delete it. connect ether2 or ether3 and then reenable ether1.

Power via ether 1 and attach network cable (another one) to one of the other ports.

There's a Jumper on RB133C next ot the mini-pci slot, remove power from RB133C, set the cap to connect both pins, then power up the device, wait till it has finished reboot (after you hear two short beeps, first you here one beep usually direct after plug in Power, then after 20 to 30 seconds , 2 beeps). Now remove Power from Device, set jumper back to cover only one pin, plug power in again, RB reboots, there you go! (Thats called reset and may be found with search in forum or wiki
)

Serial port.
Sounds like the port got disabled.
From terminal:
Interface, Ethernet, Print
Probalbly need the folowing:
Enalble ether1
Then look to see if you can see the interface via winbox (click on the button with the "..." in it to the right of the address text box) and see if the device shows up via MAC address..
Also if it is a 532 then there are two other 100T ports, You sould be able to connect to thiese too..
If You "See" the interface in winbox loader, but you get a "router disconnected" error imediatly after connecting to the box, get out your laptop and get ahold of a "Intel PRO/100 Mobile Adapter" this device is soo old and bumb as a box of rocks, that it just works. It seems that there are configurations that can cause the ethernet ports on the 500 series (I dont know about others) to drop link for a split second. Other "smart cards" see this and think the cable has been pulled and the link layer (OSI) goes to pot. This older (32bit) pc card seemd to not notice it. (It work GREAT for netinstall also..)
Sorry for the ramble..
In short, ANY port on th 532 sould be accessable via it's MAC address (slow but works). (All MT should I think)
If ALL interfaces are down / disabled, there is allways the serial port (Thanks MT)...
