of people. This is one area that will bring relief to many people out
there. Most especially satellite installers who upgrade decoders /
dongles among other things for a living. In my previous articles on
upgrading / account renewal via pc, i always strongly recommend the use
of desktop computer. The reason is because modern computers don’t come
with direct 9 pin serial port like a desktop computer or like old

with a 9 pin serial port. In this article, i will introduced you with a
modified and easier to use version of A USB to SERIAL ADAPTER. Before
i have the guts to talk about this computer accessory, i made sure i
tested it, and it works with my dell inspiron 15 64 bit laptop computer
perfectly. I used it to renew an azsky G2 receiver. The joy of it is
that, the improved version of the usb to serial cable now supports all
windows versions as well as both 32 and 64 bits processors.
