I'm trying to press my old RB2011 back into service but it's not booting or talking to Netinstall.  I've got a USB to serial console cable off ebay but it doesn't see anything.

 

Has anyone in Wellington got a known-good console cable (USB or with a known good USB to serial adapter) I could borrow for a few days?

 

Thanks!

I will have one, remind me later on today if I don't reply. Are you in the CBD?

And double thanks, resetting the routerboot config via serial port means it now talks to netinstall!
