I needed this interface to link between my OBDII hardware and my laptop, and so far it has worked great, just what I needed to troubleshoot my car.
If you are having serial port problems, this is likely the answer. Myself and another person started a new company. It is the gold standard for USB serial ports. I strongly recommend it. When we needed a serial port, we both said this one at the same time based on past experience.If I could give it more than 5 starts I would. It just plain works.
If you need a serial to USB adapter just buy this one and save yourself a lot of headaches. Keyspan products work exactly as advertised. I primarily use it with a laptop and I haven't had any problems using it with my Dell Inspiron 1501 w/Vista/AMD TK-55@1.8ghz/2gig RAM. Forget the cheap priced junk, with this adapter you gets what you pays for.
I purchased this adapter because of the compatibility with mac os x. I use this adapter to communicate with my garmin etrex legend handheld gps unit and it works great.
I use these converters in an industrial environment with various proprietary software applications and with many technicians with various brands of laptops and operating systems. With any other converter, success is hit or miss, but with the Keyspan, compatibility is assured. It is the only one I recommend.
