Review on DTECH USB to TTL Serial Adapter Cable 4 Pin 0.1 inch TX RX Signal with PL2303 Prolific Chip (6ft, Black): Windows 10 8 7 XP Vista Compatible by Daniel Truett

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Fixed my locked Netgear Nighthawk R7000 after a failed DD-WRT firmware update

Bad DD-WRT flash. Everything is done as expected. The USB device was automatically recognized in Windows 10 and I successfully connected to the router via serial using Putty. I was then able to use TFTP to download the firmware to the router and it's like new now. The attached photo shows how I connected the TX/RX/GND cables to the R7000 router.

Pros
  • USB to TTL 3.3V 4 pin Converter Cable Compatible with Windows 10, 8, 8.1, 7 (32, 64- Bit), 2008/XP/Vista/CE; Perfect USB 2.0 debug cable to overwrite vendor ID, router, GPS, set top box, transmitter, hard drive firmware, etc.
Cons
  • There are new competitors
