It's a Cisco router, not a cheap broadband router.
The first step is to configure it using console port. By default, there is
no ip address on its ports.

Vista does not include Hyperterminal, which you could have used.
You might try PuTTY
http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
I haven't used it, but it looks like you can configure it to use Com 2
also, check Device Manager, to see if your COM ports are enabled.

Richard G. Harper
Oh, I see ... you don't want Telnet. It doesn't do COM ports, never has.
You want HyperTerminal. HyperTerminal DOES do COM ports.
It isn't in Vista.
Look for an alternative terminal like TeraTerm (free) or any of dozens of
commercial (pay for) terminal programs.
