you need a null modem cable,use the one you got with your box,if you don't have one then go to radio shack and buy a male to female null modem adapter and hook it up to the rs 232 cable you bought

no,
you turn receiver off then hook up cable to pc and receiver and download bin,unzip the file and download to receiver.
DO NOT POWER RECEIVER OFF OR UNHOOK CABLE UNTIL DOWNLOAD IS COMPLETE

USB to serial convertors are notorious for problems and for slowness.
Buy only the type with its own installation CD.
Do not allow windows XP to install it.
Manually install using CD
Select COM1, or COM2, or COM3 or COM 4 port.
Use device manager in your computer to check and select the right port.

Expensive but high quality from a reputable company and it works guaranteed. Comes with its own software or download it from their site.

Works up to 230 kbps. I have this at home and I have bought dozens at office and it won't let you down.
