[WriteLog] Help - USB Port Setup

[Georgek5kg@aol.com]

Ken,

I have tried a couple of USB-to-Serial adapters on my laptop with WL.  I 
tried both the Belkin and a brand-x, but neither of them worked.  It has been 
a few months, so the details are fuzzy.  However, as I recall, WL would not 
recognize the Comm port that the USB-to-Serial was to create.  

It is strange to think that JT1CO's laptop does not have one Comm port.  I 
have never heard of a laptop without a comm port, but who knows, hi.  You 
might try to get your hands on a PCMCIA comm port card.  That should work.  
Try your local Asian computer repair shop - if there is one in your area; 
those guys are pretty good about knowing what is available and what can be 
made to work.  

Alternatively, take along a laptop that has a known configruation.

GL and have a great trip.  Sounds interesting.

73, Geo...
