Default USB to Serial adapter to SN10 Success Report

Hi,

I can't get the Keyspan USA-19HS USB to serial adapter to work with an SN10.
It connects, but waypoint transfer attempts failed.

I am using Windows 7 64-bit with the appropriate drivers from Keyspan.

The Keyspan adapter works great for me with all other soaring instruments -
just not the SN10. The same was true for me with Windows Vista 32-bit.

In the past I had used and recommended the Belkin F5U409 USB adapter for use
with ILEC SN10 units. It worked great for me with Windows Vista 32-bit.
But Belkin doesn't provide drivers for Windows 7 (32-bit or 64-bit).

Does anyone have any suggestions for connecting a Windows 7 64-bit machine
to an SN10?

Of course, the ILEC SN10 USB adapter makes this all unnecessary, but I get
this question from customers often and want to be able to recommend a
solution for them that costs less than the very nice, but expensive ILEC
option.

Best Regards,
