usb to serial
Re: usb to serial
I don't think such a thing exists. Reason is that you go from a high speed bandwidth to a lower speed bandwidth.
What you could try is to solder some wires in your Plugwise stick/z-wave stick just before the serial to usb converter chip. This does require some solder skills though.

Re: usb to serial
Why not USB over IP solutions? More of those on the market...
- Belkin Wireless USBhub (I have a brand new one for sale)
- Digi device, such as the AnywhereUSB

Do not buy the Belkin USB Hub. It does not support recent versions of Windows. I was able to get it working using SX VirtualLink (a manufacturer using the same device with a different label), but this is far from stable.
I received the Digi AnywhereUSB yesterday and it much better and supports up to Windows Server 2008.
