USB to Serial adapter not showing

[AlbyDallo]

Hi,
I am using a SBPC that has by default a serial console on a port with a microUSB connector. I was wondering if I can try to use my RUT956 modem to communicate with this port, from its USB-A port.

I have connected the RUT956 to the board using a USB-A to microUSB cable, but in Services->Serial Utilities, the USB adapter does not show up. Is this supposed to be the case?

I am using Firmware version RUT9M_R_00.07.06.3

Thank you!
Alberto

Hello,

To establish a serial connection, simply plug one end of the cable into the USB-A port on our routers and the other end into the Serial-capable device. The connection should be recognized instantly. Just refresh the Serial Utilities Page, and it should appear like this:

Ensure both devices are connected, and use the correct USB cable. Note that many USB-A to micro USB cables are designed only for power (charging) in most cases.

Best regards,
