Hi,
I have a Belkin USB Direct Connect USB-to-USB cable. Using usbnet module I can communicate between two hosts using TCP/IP.
But what I need is to be able to have a TTY-like interface, ie remove the TCP/IP stuff. Its for security reasons, today I use a serial cable (using Digi-boards) but USB is faster...
I have search all list and tried to remove the usbnet module and insert usbserial. The proble is that I can't fins any working devices, I need to open a device and read/write data to the other host.
You can not load a usbserial module and expect it to work with a usbnet device :P
If there is no solution using existing drivers, what is the best start, usbnet and strip all the TCP/IP stuff or usbserial. I realy need the speed to be as high as possible /otherwise I can use my serial approach)
If you really want this, you can connect two USB<->serial adapters (with chips like FTDI, or pl2303) and connect them together in a null-modem cable configuration.
Some of these chips can go up to 3Mbit/s.
Of course a usbnet device can go higher than this, but if you want a serial port that is what you get :)
I hope this helps,
