[QUOTE="ubila, post: 1115631, member: 173514"] OK, Im running Mac OSX 10.6.4 So i have a Prolific 2303 Serial to USB port. Im trying to use this with Z-Term to connect to Cisco Router. I originally followed this guide: [url=http://www.planet-rcs.de/article/mac_serial_port/]Add a serial port to your Mac[/url] my : Product ID: 0x2303 Vendor ID: 0x067b (as it read in my System Profiler) Originally this was working. I could connect using Z-Term and all was well. The very next time i started up the program and tried to connect, it could not find the usbserial device. I have looked in my /dev/ folder and there is no entry for tty.usbserial i used this command in Terminal : ls -la /dev/tty.* Not sure if thats the issue ? But seems to be missing a tty file? Basicly in Z-Term when i go to Settings > Modem Preferences , there is no serial via usb option anymore (there was the first time i set it up) Other thing i was thinking, maybe Z-Term locked the tty like Minicom can do on Linux? Any help would be great, busting a blood vesstle on this one.... Cheers [/QUOTE]
