Works perfect right out of the package and still use it on a daily basis. No issues at all.

I didn't get any further than taking this out of the envelope they sent it in to realize it did not come with the 3 foot USB cable. I needed to use this to connect my laptop to a fire panel and the extra 3 foot cable would have made this the perfect length for what I needed. I never unboxed it because it was not what I purchased. It may work for some, unfortunately it wouldn't work for me.

This serial usb adapter that has the FTDI chipset. The Prolific chipset adapters do not work as well as these. This worked the first time I pluged it in perfectly. If you are having trouble with the prolific chipset adapters, buy this one. I don't give 5 stars much, but this one is a 5 star item! The price is a little high, but the free shipping makes up for it!The drivers on the CD it came with i'm sure are fine, but they may be 1 rev behind. I got the latest from the main website.

I tried 3 or 4 other manufactures of USB to RS-232 adapters and all had issues with the software I was developing. Some USB to RS-232 adapters even blue-screened Windows. This is the only adapter that worked flawlessly. The USBGear device uses the FTDI chipset and has certified Windows drivers. I highly recommend this USB to RS-232 serial adapter.

There's a driver CD but it does NOT include Windows-7..Turns out the CD is still useful.. upon insertion a web page pops up with local driver links AND a weblink to newer drivers at [..]. Meantime the CD plays a little video explaining how to install the adapter and configure COM port settings. Pretty nice!You don't need to save the CD since the adapter says 'USBGEAR' right on it, so you'll always know where to get drivers.5 stars for a nice gadget with good back end support!

Plugged it into my system and it has worked like a champ.Before you use the adapter you'll want to run "Windows Update" off the Start menu. For Windows 7 you won't need the mini CD-ROM that comes with the adapter. Run "Windows Update" two separate times because there are two things Microsoft wants to install.- FTDI - Other hardware - USB Serial Port- FTDI - Other hardware - USB Serial ConverterAfter those two software updates are installed you're ready to use the adapter.This unit also came with a very nice shielded USB extension cable too. I'm using it for a very old Garmin GPS device. The Garmin software found the serial port very easily.
