I just about tore my hair out the other night trying to find the right equipment to connect up to a small Cisco 1721 router. I wanted to get the afore mentioned router configured for some training I was doing. The problem of course being that I lacked a PC with any COM ports to connect the Cisco console cable up to. Just to think a few years ago I had rejoiced when motherboard manufacturers ceased supplying COM ports on their boards and replaced them with extra USB ports.
