What adapter? Have you asked on the dsmlink forum? lots of help there, and usually pretty quick.

Is the key in the ON position when trying to connect?

Common problem. Read the forums. You need to check to see which port your cpu and dsmlink are trying to use.

Under "options," try the other port. On mine, there are two options COM3, and COM5. Default seems to be com3 so when my laptop battery dies it resets to that, when it needs to be on 5. I have to change it back every now and it times out otherwise.

Also, as mentioned, key "on," and the correct adapter are necessary for operation.
