It should be running version 1.1, not 1.0. UniverCD should have a copy
of the "Cisco 1020 Command Reference" to supplement the small "Cisco
1020 User Guide".

That's correct - its using an unnumberred ip interface. The Cisco 1020
should be using configuration 4, from page 4-10 of the User Guide.
Are you sure you're using a proper cable; you should be able to use the
console cable (see Table A-2) with a gender-changer to plug into the
1020's console port S0.
Will I get flamed too badly if I mention that Livingston also now makes
the PortMaster Office Router, which has an ethernet, console port,
PCMCIA modem slot, and our command line interface (and supports PMconsole?)
