Hi,
I bought two refurbished 2911 routers for a home lab. When I boot them up, they both have solid green lights under "SYS" and "PS". I have a console to USB cable and use putty to access the routers. I plug the console cable into the router and the USB into my PC. The PC does not show any extra COM ports under device manager so I am not sure what port to use in Putty. All I see is COM3 and COM4 for "standard Serial over Bluetooth link". I just purchased the cable brand new yesterday.
Is there a driver I need to install in order to get my PC to recognized the console cable? Or is there something wrong with the hardware on the routers?
Thanks!
