    Is there an updated driver needed to access the USB console port on the AP-175?

    Is there a driver out that is compatible with Windows 10?  I can't seem to find one in the Silabs website.  When searching their site, this driver doesn't even come up...it seems the only way to get the Win7 driver is via your link...

    No dice kimosabe. Tried it with no luck on multiple Win10 machines. Support has said that any standard USB cable will work. I've tried two to no avail. We have ordered some from HPE to validate whether or not that is accurate. If so, we may have a flaked out 303H. I guess I'll know later today when the cables arrive.

    BUMP. I am having the same problem with the 303H and Windows 10. Did you find a solution for this?

    Yes sir. Custom console cable is necessary. Standard micro-usb charger cable does not work. Bought one and had it shipped and it connected right up.

    Got my AP-CBL-SERU now. Worked wonders :)
