Not sure of the others on this list but EVERYTIME I have ever used a USB/Serial adapter on a USB hub I have had problems. Often it was not recognized upon startup of the PC - it was only recognized when unplugged and then plugged in with the PC On. I had to place the adapter in every USB socket it was ever in and then "Uninstall - the device." THEN place in the HUB. The serial adapter ALWAYS had to be in the same HUB socket. I ended up with 6 - 8 serial ports only one of which was any good. Ended up "restoring" (can only do with WIN-XP) the PC to before I ever bought the @#$% thing. I now only place it in a specific non-HUB USB socket and always the same one. Might be a good idea to put some fingernail polish on the socket/plug.
Rich, KE0X ------------ >From KE1EV - Oh, in re-reading your message, it looks like the transfer rate is an issue. I've got my USB/Serial adapters out on USB hubs, so they don't get full bandwidth. Maybe that's the issue. Odd that a 4800 baud device needs 200+mb connection to work... -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.
