[Dx4win] Multi Port Serial Cards

Sat, 25 May 2002 20:10:58 -0400

I second the USB to RS-232 route. I purchased the Byterunner 4-port model
and while it is not the least expensive way to go, it sure has been the
least painful way!! Works great!

I am using a "generic" Keyspan 4 port USB to COM box and have had no
problems with it.  I just loaded the software, plugged it into the USB port,
and rebooted.  When the reboot was done I now had COM1 through COM6.  They
make an 8 port model too.  Any good computer supply dealer should have them
or an equivalent.

That way I skip the card hassle and get all the cables away from the dark
recesses behind my CPU.  Also works great on my laptop.
