What I'm thinking the problem is that the serial port on the RC GW21W is improperly configured for outputting to the RC.
I'm not particularly familiar with the communication schemes used by the RC, but have you gotten these boxes working with other serial devices? You've probably already tried this, but if the problem lies in the GW21W instead of the RC, you could be banging your head against the wall. Try putting another serial device through them and see if that works.
