Hi,
I just bought two BBB Wireless boards.
The default image, Debian version is 8.6 - I am able to use PUTTY for serial debug console.
But after I have upgraded to latest Debian version 9.4, my Windows Computer Device manager can still detect the serial port, BUT PUTTY for serial debug console is NOT responding anymore…
I use remote SSH to login, and see that ttyO is still enabled
dmesg | grep ttyO
[ 0.000000] Kernel command line: console=ttyO0,115200n8 bone_capemgr.uboot_capemgr_enabled=1 root=/dev/mmcblk1p1 ro rootfstype=ext4 rootwait coherent_pool=1M net.ifnames=0 quiet

What should I do to enable putty back for serial debug console use?
Note: the original image Debian info in the new BBB wireless board:
