I am having a heck of a time getting this Cisco USB Console to work, I down loaded and installed the driver, its a windows 7 x64 system I plug in the router and it install and if I look in device manager I get comport 3 under ports and at the top I see cisco USBconsolewindowsdriver inside that it shows cisco buss enumerator and Cisco USB to serial adapter but there is? In the icons but everything says it installed.

You can then use a terminal program like putty to connect by 'serial' to com1 or whatever number com port the driver gives you.
