also depends on the usb to serial device. some of the ones on ebay are not reliable. i have a prolific device and one other, both work fine.
Yep, I have numerous USB to Serial converters here and have been using it directly non wireless since I got my mount. I had a digital setting Circle originally with a USB to serial / TTL (my area of spert) and it failed to recognise the device when connected.

It seems the USB hub I received only recognises specific drivers that need to be converted to IP and COMMs is not one of them. If yours works then I would be glad to re-look at the project again.
