What device are we talking about? Router console is 9600 baud serial by default.

I have the Cisco 1000 that has its console 10Base T for the console.
I have connected the Lan cable to the console (10 base T is the console) and the other end to the Nic card on the computer.
Given the nic an ip and now using the hyperterminal I specify the ip address and it gives the defaul port of 23.
when I hit connect, the light on the cisco Lan led flashes and I get a messges can not connect to the the ip address and port.
Any idea?

Hi
I guess the IP address you have set is for your own PC.
You will need to set the address in the hyperterminal to the address on the 10BaseT port of the router. Trouble is, I don't know what that is going to be....
If you had another router you could connect to the 1000, with CDP enabled it would tell you what IP address is in the 1000.
It might be worth seeing if anything is dicovered by ARP on your PC. Close the hyperterminal & start a DOS prompt instead. Enter 'arp -a' to see what is in your PC's ARP cache.
If you do find an IP address then set your PC up to have an address in the same subnet, and then telnet to the address of the 1000. This is what the hypertermnial is doing with port 23.
If the 1000 is at default settings, then there may be a default value for its IP address. I think a search on might get that for you.
I know it's not much, but I hope it is a start....

By saying "console", I'm assuming you mean the port labeled "console" on the unit.
That is a RJ45 serial port, not a 10baseT network port. Just as Eurobadger was saying.
