Ok, I own a Garmin etrex and I constructed my own data cable.
Unfortunately, my laptop, fujitsu S6120, does not have a serial port so I have to buy a USB to serial converter.
I was so excited when I tried to connect easyGPS for the first time, but it turned out badly. Apparently, the computer cannot use the converter. doing a loopback test on the device did not help either. I'm hoping someone who has encountered this would help me out.
How did you guys with lappies with no serial ports do this? same as me?
