When I am reconnected same USB/COM adapter with the same cable (between K2 and adapter) to the USB port on laptop, no communication. Of course the driver in laptop is installed and from the utilities and hardware control looks all OK. USB ports on laptop are working (checked with USB flash). All parameters on the COM port are the same as on desktop PC. I am on the end of my knowledges now, any help?
