If you look at a diagram of the computer, the comm ports are numbered- AFAIK, those numbers go with the port and aren't assignable.
That might be true, but I'm using a USB to RS232 adaptor because my computer doesn't have any COM ports. How would one number those?
So I looked up the diagram and found that the USB ports are all labeled "USB PORT." A note says they'll work with USB 1.1 and 2.0.
You wrote "I've got one that worked for years. It's not working." in the original post. That's what I was referring to.
Oh. Okay.
What model is the computer? When I needed to know the port assignments for my Dell, I googled the model and found a manual that showed the names for each port.
It's a ThinkPad T420.
