I wonder if I purchased a bad cable... I see partial ASCII words, like:

U�quit�

But mostly I see non-printable characters. Attaching/reattaching the cable doesn't seem to solve it either. It's a USB-to-RJ45 Serial cable.

Hello,

I'm attempting to use cu to connect to an EdgeRouter PoE device. I am in the dialer group. I am running the following command in an Xterm window:

$ cu -l cuaU0 -s 115200

The following command appears to succeed, but (mostly) gibberish is returned to my terminal. I'm not sure if it's non-printable ASCII or I'm doing something seriously wrong. Official documentation on this device claims a baud rate of 115200. Any ideas?


This happened to my edgerouter awhile ago and unplug/replug both ends of the serial adapter should fix it.

The baud rate for it has always been 115200 AFAIK.
