mazdaspeedwerx said:that is one of my problems is that I can not get a connection between my laptop and micro tech. I went out and bought a usb serial adapter but for some reason that does not work. I also went to belkin.com to download the latest software for it but that did not help either.
The dongle is the the black adapter that came with your MT yeh...its got a serial plug thingo on either side - it stores your tunes, but it also seems to "decrypt" info coming off the MT.mazdaspeedwerx said:the adapter I have is a usb serial adapter. it says it's for palm and pockket pc handhelds. what is a dongle? the adapter that came with the m/t? I dont know what the hell dropping the baud rate means. I am not very computer savy. all I know how to do is get on this forum and talk to all of you fine people
uninstall then reinstall the drivers for your usb-serial adapter.mazdaspeedwerx said:well I had my friend lend me his laptop and it connected to the m/t. so now I dont know what the hell to do. I used all the same cables and adapters. after I it connected with his I hooked mine up to it and nothing. I think I am just going to buy the handheld thing for this
hahamazdaspeedwerx said:I have reinstalled my usb driver and m/t. I think my car and laptop have devised a plan to get back at me for all of the abuse that has been released upon them
Sounds like the USB controller is screwed..mazdaspeedwerx said:yeah for some reason I am not able to load pics from my camera either. so my laptop must be messed up somewhere
