I can second that. I use a Sitecom CN-104 (also Prolific) with several
devices like Sun hardware and Soekris/Wrap systems boards and it al works
perfectly (FreeBSD/Linux and Windows).

Thanks.  I decided to not take a chance and ordered a Prolific based Iogear
adapter. :)


Thanks,

 I'm on the market for a USB serial adapter.  The Keyspan USA-19HS gets a
 lot of good reviews for its performance, but I've noticed previous Keyspan
 models have a history of not supporting FreeBSD due to firmware issues. 
 The 19HS is listed in /usr/src/sys/dev/usb/usbdevs with nothing noted about
 firmware (as opposed to the older 19WQ).  Can I assume that the firmware
 problems of the past aren't relevant to the current 19HS?
 
 Can anyone confirm if a USA-19HS works on FreeBSD 7-STABLE right now?

Since you're still in the market: I've heard wonderful things about any
of the USB serial adapters that use the Prolific chip; see uplcom(4).
Others apparently are known for dropping characters on occasion.
