I do not have a serial port on my laptop, so i bought a
USB serial adapter. I can't get it to work. Is there
drivers out there that I need to install for this? If
where can I find them. Thanks!
 
What device do you want to connect using the serial to USB
adapter?

Well I'm looking to use it as a regular serial port. To
telnet into the routers and switches and fun stuff like
my camera.
 
I suspect that you can't because the devices you mention, if
they are not USB will have the software at either end to
operate.

Suggest you contact the router and switch mfg'r to see if
they have any advice. Suggest you buy a camera with a USB
port.

of info.
