I bought two in the end, first one was the cable that was on Simonthewizard's website here: https://amzn.eu/d/00mA4CGK

and then I ended up buying this one from ebay: https://ebay.io/m/RnMHdO

which was a bit pricey. The amazon cable shows up as working fine in device manager as a USB serial. The ebay one shows up as Silicon Labs CP210x USB to UART Bridge and again working fine under device manager.

Tried multiple combinations with RJ12 plugs to get them working but no luck so far.

The one you say you got from Amazon is exactly the one I am using. I ended up buying a 6P6C cable off Amazon and used about 2' off one end to solder to the adapter. I didn't have a 6 pin crimper and the cable would have been cheaper than buying a crimper.

Anyway, if you look at the attached pic, pin 2 (2nd from the left) is RXD, pin 3 (3rd from the left) is ground and pin 4 (4th from the left) is TXD. I originally wired the RXD line to the TXD pin on the mic etc, but it didn't work. When reversed the RXD and TXD lines it fired right up. Also, not sure what the baud rate setting needs to be for the COMM Port, but I went into the device manager and set it at 115200.

Thank you for the help, It's more than appreciated. I've had to order some more RJ12 connectors. I'll try one more time when the connectors arrive.
