ESP32-POE no com port on USB

[dparrnd]

I just received a ESP32-POE.
I connect the board to a windows PC using an USB cable. Ethernet port isn't connected. I expect a detection of new USB device by the PC, so that i can provide the right driver and get a COM port. But nothing occurs. I change the cable and the PC. No change.
The only feedback at the board level is a red led.
Any Idea ?

Hello,

The USB drivers might be missing somehow. Please install the CH340T drivers for your operating system. For Windows the drivers are inside this archive:

https://www.olimex.com/Products/Breadboarding/BB-CH340T/resources/CH341SER.zip - run the SETUP.exe inside the "CH341SER" folder.

Is the device visible in "Windows Device Manager" after the driver installation?

Best regards,
Lub/OLIMEX

Hi
Thanks for your reply.
The cause of my issue was the USB cable.  Unfortunately, my second USB cable was also wrong .... But with a third one,  it's OK. My first two USB cables provide only power !
