Progammatically set PORT to COM mapping

USB Devices
1

I am running Win7 x64 and we use Digi Acceleport 4p’s. The digi drivers are staged in an unnatended OS installation.

The problem i am having is that the PORT to COM mappings are completely inconsistent.

For example on one system i have:

Port 1 = COM5
Port 2 = COM6
Port 3 = COM4
Port 4 = COM7

another system got:

Port 1 = COM6
Port 2 = COM7
Port 3 = COM8
Port 4 = COM5

As well, every time I rebuild the same system, the PORTS are mapped to different COMs from the previous installation. the problem is that i don’t know how to programmtically fix this.

I know i can go into device manager and change the adapter properties and set the ports to match and be consistent across systems.

what i want to know is if there is some command line or script i can use that will do this for me?

thanks!

Sorry, this is a known issue and will be fixed when Windows 7 drivers are released. Unfortunately, we do not have an estimate for when this will occur.

I see this is an old thread. Was this ever resolved?
