What's a good one and where do I find one? My laptop is too new and doesn't have a db9 serial port, so I need an adapter for my dsmlink and laptop to work together via usb. Any suggestions?

I bought a KeySpan (USA-19HS) USB Serial Adapter from CompUSA for $39.99.
I dont know which other ones work but I believe there is a list on DSMlinks webpage of adapters you can use.

Here ya go:

thanks, that just confirms the USA-19HS cable! Thanks Guys!

I might be a little late on this one, but you can get the KeySpan adapter in that picture from the guys at DSMLink. It's significantly cheaper than I was able to find anywhere else.

Brining it back from the dead.

Our area doesn't have a compusa so does bestbuy have something that would work for a 1g?

I would really like to get one so I dont have to use the ole ladys monster laptop..

If you have DSMLink, you should have forum access. If you have forum access, you can purchase it through ECMTuning for a FAR better price then any bestbuy/compusa/w.e.

You don't even need forum access to purchase it through them. But yes, they sell the Keyspan adapter which is the way to go. I believe my friend is using a Radio Shack adapter without any problems if you want/need a local option.

IIRC, the Radioshack adapter is close to $35. I bought it for my LC-1.

EDIT: I just did a search and found it. It's $38.99 +tax. Gigaware® 6-ft. USB-A to Serial Cable - RadioShack.com

I got mine from radio shack as well and works perfect.
