Com problem

Hi
I have followed your instructions but when I go to down load my computer is saying that the usb adapter is connected to com 6 no matter which port I put it in. Can you give me any advice to rectify this?

Try to avoid Maplin they are well expensive. Online is cheaper by far if you don't mind the wait.

problem was with usb port sorted now thanks

hi everyone, I have followed the instructions and can not find any com ports in device manager. Why is that?
I also have bout a usb to 9pin female rs232 and all that comes up when i press download is COM 3 and nothing else after this.
After a while on the UFL it comes up with no COM available or something

I have looked at Ebay but not sure if I would be buying the proper cable.

I know I'm thick.......but I'm learning!
