I can not connect to the LinkSwitch 1000 using a null modem cable so I can set an IP address on it. I used both 3COMs WEB SLIP Utility and hyperterminal. I set both to use VT100 emulation, 8, 1, N, 9600, COM1.

I have been successful connecting to my three Superstack II 3300 switches.

When I try to connect, the screen doesn't respond. I feel I've tried every different variation to no avail.

Has anyone done it successfully that I can talk to and get more specifics on how the settings must be? I'd really appreciate any help.

 
Well, the answer to this one was actually simple. I reset the switch and tried again successfully.

I found an article that said to use hyperterminal, but only set 9600, 8, 1, NONE, NONE - FLOW CONTROL and NOTHING else.

This didn't work until I reset the switch.
