USB To RS232 Adapter With PL2303 Chip (3-Pack) Review

I'm in the technology business and I work with a product called Southwest Microwaves Intrepid Perimeter Monitoring System, it's their legacy Micro Point system (not II) and their modules communicate through RS - 232, well I thought I was ready to serve this client site until I plugged in an older USB to RS-232 adapter and couldn't find the COM port(?) so opened it I checked device manager only to find out which driver number it has longer been supported by microsoft! AAAAAAAAAA! Free Windows…

Had to replace an old USB to RS232 cable for our gate control software at work. We upgraded computers and I found that the old cable doesn't work well with Windows 10 due to driver issues. It was plug and play, didn't even need a disc but I think a disc will come with it in case you don't have internet.

I don't know if it burned down. I used it successfully once, but after a few minutes it stopped working on another computer. So I went back to the first computer, but it didn't work there either. I've downloaded new drivers but it still won't connect to my RS232 device. Buy another brand. Too late to return or ask for a new one. Correction! It works great if you connect the device to power properly. ! My device was powered by a 12V power adapter that was not connected to the mains. I moved my…

Installed on Windows 10 x64 10.0.17763.316 - was able to communicate with my router's serial port. When I plugged it into Windows, the driver didn't install automatically, but when I opened Device Manager, selected "Update Driver" and allowed it to search the internet, it was able to find and install the driver. Without rebooting I had COM3 and PuTTY was able to use it. Edit: Bought a second one - was good too.

Excellent adapter. My application is a Windows 10 host laptop with a Windows XP guest running VMware Workstation. The XP box was previously on real hardware that was dying, so I virtualized it. It was a trading system with a serial modem attached, so I had to look for a solution as the laptop doesn't have serial ports. This guy was such a decision. I installed the drivers (included with the adapter) on an XP guest and everything went fine. Then I connected the modem to the laptop through this…

I bought this adapter to log data from my broadband O2 sensor in the car. I'm using Windows 10 and this is how it worked for me. I plugged in the adapter, but devices don't see it. I used the CD that came with it to install the driver. Windows device management recognized the device but returned an error message stating that the device could not be turned on. I've tried restarting the computer, reinstalling the driver, and turning the device off and on again. So I let Windows search the…

I am Lumen's Lead Network Architect and I use many different routers/switches for my home as I always install PoC at my home to test network solutions for work. I have purchased several of these Category 6 cables for my home and PoC. I used one of these cables from my Asus Wi-Fi 6 router's WAN gateway at home to my Tablo, which wirelessly streams local HD channels to my smart TVs. Yes, I refuse to pay cable companies $150 a month when I can get most of the channels you will ever want for free…
