Sometimes the usb adapter will need a driver installed to make a comm port active.I have seen them work with and without a driver.So keep that in mind when buying one.

The ecm the provider sent out changed a set of keys that you can't manually enter to bring you back up.It takes new fixes most of the time lately.

The keys are here: http://www.ftaprofessionals.tv/fta-k...9-4-58-pm.html

But that will not work as new files are needed to fix the ECM's. You can buy the cable for about 10$ if you look around.

Changing keys manually doesn't really work any more. The line 106 can't be changed manually, only line 86 and 96 can be put in. You can just ad a serial port it takes 5 min and it will probably cost you under $ 5. My new PC didn't have serial port either and i have a few kicking around so i just plugged it into my motherboard screwed 2 screws in the back of my PC and that's it.
