Hmm... I'm not sure - I haven't used the Dashboard yet this year, and probably won't get a chance to for a while.

Ya i've used a usb to 9 pin last year and it worked great. This year the code gets corrupted and never works right. Instead it locks the RC into prog. mode and the only way to get it out is pressing something like reset then program then wait for the light to blink yaddaaa yaddaa yaddaa.. works great for dashboard though.

We're using a Keyspan USA-19HS, which works fine. Stay away from the Belkin USB-serial adapter - we started out with one and it transferred at about one bit/sec.
