USB adapter or serial port?

The port you use on the computer has to match in the FAST set-up. If your set-up for Comm 2 on the FAST and using a USB adapter it's probably defualted to a high Comm #. You'll have to set-up the computer to use Comm 1-4 and then match the FAST to the same port.

at first it said no com. then after switching to usb 1 it said ecm not found.

or something like that. Is it my windows vista??

 

[390STEVE]

yes it is a serial port adapted to a usb port

also my laptop is only about a year old

There have been some issues with Vista in the past which is probably according to what version of C-com you have.

You must go under communications on FAST and set-up so that FAST uses the same com port as your computer.

thanks for the advice. When I get home for work I will try it.

It's also very possible that you may have to download the correct drivers for the USB connector to work with Vista. I had to do this with an XFI system last year. The included disc did not include Vista, so I went to the USB adapters website and found the drivers.
