USB to Serial adapters for Windows 7 64 bit

Doug Smith · April 2011

Has anyone found a good solution for a USB to Serial adapter that works well with Windows 7 64 bit? Anyone tried a bluetooth version with Win 7?

The bluetooth ones work fine. Most of them just use the generic serial port profile so everything plays nice.

When I got my new Windows 7 64 bit laptop, I tried all the USB to Serial adapters I could find from practically every local store - none worked. I ordered a Sabrent with prolific chipset and it has worked great.

I need to update to wireless/bluetooth. That will be very nice. Any suggested/robust products would be appreciated.

Thx!

I use a Roving Networks Blueport XP. Works awesomely.

Perhaps try a PCI slot version instead of USB
