That is the same cable. The T191 the "the" cable what is normaly used. It must be verry smal modificated to fit into the C1xx. You must cut a bit from the black plastic near the jack to fit "fully" inside.

PS: With the cable from dealextreme you dont have to make this modifications on the cable(i doesnt need that on the cable i get from them).

hi everyone,

could the strange problem be related to the cheap cable...?

still waiting for usb data cable from akku-king (supply issue... related to osmocomBB project ?), i'm also experiencing unstable serial communications with this cable : http://www.multi-unlock.com/images/mot-t191.jpg

some related questions :

does someone here use this cable ? : http://gsmserver.com/newshop/images/large/COM_cable_for_Motorola_T191.jpg

can we use direct connection to PC serial port (UART or usb serial adapter) safely ? i mean without any ttl level conversion (like max-232) ?

which exact FTDI usb to serial chipset (ie FT232R) is most recommended, with :

• good linux driver support
• support for a possible future use of higher non-standard baud rates ?

is there any serial port configuration trick or driver tweak to get better serial communications with osmocon ?

thanks nico
