I'd say that if you configure it properly, it will work just fine. Having said that, you need to be aware of your protocol in order to get the job done properly.
In order for this to work, we need to use our NETRS232 device. Install our VCOM software application on the computer you wish to view the serial data on so that you will be able to receive the serial data. This is Brian from The Support section of the site
We offer NETRS232485W device which has SSH support instead of the NETRS232 which only supports Telnet. Microsoft Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, and Windows Server 2003, 2008 R2, 2012, 2016, 2019 are all compatible with the NETRS232485W. StarTech. Matt, the Managing Partner. The Support section of the site
Thanks for asking, I appreciate it! A DB9 serial device over a network is made possible by this adapter. Due to the fact that it requires software installation, it will only function on computers that run It is our hope that this will help. Alternatively, feel free to get in touch with us directly if you have any more Greetings from Nick at Customer Support at StarTech. Please join us

With the software that we are using for this device, I have encountered three problems. The most egregious problems (and why we are There is no access to the virtual serial ports it creates. Hidden devices must be shown in system manager in order to be seen and, to make matters worse, some software does not recognize them because they are hidden and hidden by default. Another problem I had was that I hadn't been able to get DHCP to work properly. I set it to use DHCP, and it was assigned an IP address, but then either restarted or reverted to factory settings. Three points need to be addressed By default, the IP address is set at the factory to One of the most common router and gateway addresses in smaller businesses and homes is 1. You have to take your computer off the network in order to manually configure the IP address on it so you can install the device. It's not a big deal, but it is still annoying. I would prefer that it uses DHCP right out of the box.
In this case, the included "driver" is not a true driver in the conventional sense of the word. During server boot-up, it is not in place, and it doesn't load until a logged in user starts it. Having a headless server wouldn't be useful at all. It is a very poor performing device. None of this matters as it does not do what it is supposed to do. Having worked with startech for more than one week, I'm quite happy with it. Com's tech support is awful! I found that my fax modem would never work with this product. I ended up purchasing a different device from a competitor and I am having much more success with that one! All startech should be avoided. You can find com products here!.
I should have read the manual before committing myself To use it, you must have special windows There is only software for accessing the data, which I find to be of little utility As I do not have a Windows system, I am returning the device.
may be a bit difficult to set up compared to other units I have tried, but I was able to use it for what I needed in this situation. The unit may not consist of everything you need, as it does not fulfill everything that other units can. Compact and reliable, this device is designed for everyday use. This is also a good value for the money.
This is working fine, but there are some issues with the Startech Serial Control app.
Connected it to an IP device and used it to convert a serial I love that it works!.
I was unable to log in because of a wrong password.
