If it is FTDI then it should work. The only problems reported were for some of the prolific chips.
As for the USB HUB, that is irrelevant here as if you plug in the device, it should show as a new COM port.
ie unplug the device
open device mangler and open the LPT ports section.
( it should be empty ?? )
plug in the shoestring
If it auto detects and shows under there as a COM port ( without an error or warning ), then it is being detected properly.
Another test is to put a loopback link in the subD connector to link the Tx to the Rx lines.
Use my app to try and connect
the log "should" show :e1[0D] being sent, and then echoed back in as received
