I'm trying to use my Tech 2 for the first time in conjunction with the laptop and I just realized that there's no way with what I have to plug into the serial port. I have a Dell d630 Latitude with a 9-pin Serial port. Can anyone send me a link to a proper adapter. Thanks really appreciate the help

Did you not get the RJ45 serial adapter with the Tech2?

If not buy a couple of these....pin notation is on the Tech2wiki site.

Thanks appreciate it I ordered same one but wired with phone cord.i see now I spent too much lol.at least it'll work and I know for next time .hopefully it won't take forever getting here

You may have issues with your purchase as the serial adapter wiring is not standard.
Also you should be using a standard ethernet patch cable...not a two pin phone cord?
You may have to register to see the specs.
