That's strange. We use a USB-to-serial cord all of the time and never experience those problems.

A few years ago, we thought the USB-to-serial cord was unreliable and stopped using it. This year, however, we discovered that the real problem was the inability of the laptop to power the adapter when its battery level was below 50%.

Now, we just plug in the laptop before downloading and it works at full speed every time.
