Great with Vista! Cisco Compatible!!!
I bought this device in hopes that it would emulate as a serial port and work with Cisco Rollover Cables. It works! I can hyperterminal as COM8 or COM9 and make changes on various Cisco switches. Used it all day at work and did not have a problem.

I don't believe in using the CD media provided. I downloaded from the website and did not have one problem installing drivers.

I have also read that it works for OS X to do Cisco work. So happy it works. I wish laptops still had Serial Ports installed on them.

Works with Modems
This adapter is is the US version of the ATEN adapter, UC232A. Same adapter just a different label. I have used this adapter to connect to modems on Windows, 2000, XP, and Vista computers. It is the only VISTA compatible adapter that actually works on VISTA (that I have tested). Unfortunately the VISTA driver does not come on the CD. You will need to download the driver from IO Gear's website.

The adapter also has OS X drivers but it DOES NOT function on OS X with modems. It will not work. Best to use the Keyspan running OS X.

Works good
We bought this to replace one that we had to give to my brother. It is overpriced but works fine

Works great with Sky Caddie
Works great with Sky Caddie. Just plugged it into my DELL Vostro and it worked right off the bat. Drivers autmatically install.

Works like it should
After some research it appeared the serial to usb adapters were not all equal. They vary in how much of the serial signalling protocol they support. I bought the IOGear converter to hook up my laptop to a Cisco 678 DSL router. It worked great. No problems.
