Which "usb to serial" cable do I need?
there are so many different versions, and I'm new to this stuff
(A link or more info in the get started section would be nice)with 6 pins?

or are 5 pins enough?

(because there hasn't been a cable in my starter box)

You don't need any usb to serial cable. All you need is a micro USB cable, the converters are included on-board. What do you want to do exactly?
-
Ah, that's cool.
I had the problem (look here) so I have to get a connection with a cable to fix the wifi problems

I was using a normal Micro USB Cable to connect my onion...
After that, I was following all the instruction in the wiki: (https://wiki.onion.io/Tutorials/Connecting-to-Omega-via-Serial-Terminal)joergi@nerdbook: $ sudo chmod 666 /dev/ttyUSB0
chmod: "/dev/ttyUSB0ā not possible: file or folder not foundIf I type
lsusbi just got this result:

@Joergi Maybe the Omega didn't get mapped to
/dev/ttyUSB0on your system.Try running
ls /dev/tty*and posting the output.
-
and here is the lsusb -v output:

-
@Joergi Is this with the Omega plugged in and powered on?
-
I switched now from the Onion Arduino Dock to the Onion Mini Dock....
NOW I can see the ttyUSB0, but I can't see it, if I connect my Onion with the Arduino Dock.
-
@Joergi Oh, that's because the Arduino Dock does not come with an on-board USB to serial chip. This is only available on Expansion dock and mini dock.
-
alright.... thanks for the help
