So everything seems to work. Expect you wont be able to connect (I’m using cisco router/switch via the console port) go a head and try yourself then come back. So now if you have tested and it doesn't work you can try a quick and dirty trick (this will only work if the converter/cable is connected and will remain working as long as you do not unplug it. If you do plug it back in and re-enter the code below.

Code: sudo chmod 777 /dev/ttyUSB0 (make sure you enter the correct number but mostly for what I have seen is ttyUSB0. 0 is a zero) Now if you had entered the code everything should be working, if it isn't and you checked you entered the code correctly then you need more help. So we have so far, checked to see if the drivers are installed and working, the device is seen and we can connect. So lets fix it so you do not have to change the permission every time you re-boot. Or unplug the cable. To do so enter the code below, re-boot and happy days all is good.
