There's a variety of USB to serial adapters available. The better ones some with software that allow you to change the com port and baud rates etc. I use one from Keyspan and it works very well though it wasn't as cheap as some of the generic models.- Bottom

i also have a VAIO laptop without a serial jack, and i have a belkin usb to serial adapter. i use it for MX remotes, etc... it is active with software, etc.
it DOESNT work with the 1098. i just tried it and im going to call rotel tomorrow to see what is going on. when i loaded up the program from their website (MTTY), i set all the settings up, and press connect, then turn on the unit, and i just get a single line of crap.
at this point the program seems to lock up. if i disconnect, it gives me an error and the program stops responding. but there is definately communication, because when i turn on the unit, it sends information, i can see it on the lights of the adapter.
has anyone else used the belkin adapter and had success?- Bottom
