to do what? for one, is that even a jtag adapter? that looks very much like an USB network card. second, if it was jtag, it'd mean you'd have to permanently have it hooked up to your PC and always send the SMC code via the PC every single time you turn on the console.

Its a ethernet to USB cable, Cant u use that to replace the LTP ? I thought you can remove the LTP after you dump and flash the nand

Wow, this whole thread is fail.
Yes, the LPT can be removed after flashing, but not the JTAG. FLASHING YOUR NAND AND JTAGING ARE NOT THE SAME THING.
No, ethernet and LPT are NOT the same. Any other random-ass devices you want to suggest?

Nobody ever said anything about Flashing the Nand and JTaging are the same  I think you just cant read You can connect ethernet to your LTP from your motherbord, So i was thinking maby you could connect ethernet straight to USB.... So i think the fail was on your part.....

It's not ethernet, it's just an RJ45 SOCKET. And you said in your first post that you want to connect jtag to USB. jtag needs no PC connection at all.

I was thinking, would it be possaible to use one of these on a JTag so you can use a USB connection to your PC ?? Ok, so by "on a JTag", I guess you meant "on a JTAG'ed box". I was thinking, would it be possaible to use one of these on a JTag so you can use a USB connection to your PC ?? And by "use a USB connection to your PC" you mean "use this as a USB interface to flash your NAND". Please, understand the confusion with your statement. You can connect ethernet to your LTP from your motherbord, So i was thinking maby you could connect ethernet straight to USB....
I've never seen ethernet connected to an L PT port before. The closest thing I've seen is serial adapted to an RJ45 for a long run. But it's still serial, not ethernet. Either way, no, that device is going to be useless for this application. There is a PIC based USB solution that you could use for reading and writing your NAND. It would work for you since you don't need an LPT port for it. Schematics and source are posted in these forums, but I think you'd still have to built it yourself.

Ethernet is a serial-based protocol, and LPT is a parallel interface. There are no ways on earth that you can interconnect those two together *easily*

Actually while LPT is a parallel port, we are using a serial protocol (SPI) to talk to the flash controller.

It seems t3h Webmaster has confused the RJ45 to DB25 flash reading/writing setup with the ability to flash over ethernet.
It's really not that far of a stretch if you have absolutely no technical knowledge whatsoever. Maybe he works in management?

I see, it's setups like this that are responsible for his confusion. http://hackingjungle.com/viewtopic.php?f=36&t=141Sorry for being so snippy w3bmaster, I just had no idea where that idea came from. It seems like people use cat5 for just about anything these days. I've seen people run serial, audio, even VIDEO(not over IP) over cat5. It just means that they're using the cable for something other than it's original purpose, a network card will not be useful for any of those implementations. Only network. Something I wonder about though, one of cat5 cable's biggest strengths is the twisted pairs used to remove/reduce interference to/from other pairs. But if you use twisted pairs for two signals that are not opposite of each other, would you be *more* likely to introduce interference between them, or just no better (or worse) than straight wires?

Who says CAT5 should only be used for ethernet? It's just a standardized cable. I use it as my primary hobby/hacking wire because you've got a nice ready assortment of colours.

I never said that cat5 should only be for ethernet. I always have spools of it, so I end up using the wires out of it in little projects all the time. I do think that a smaller gauge would be easier to handle for soldering the jtag and lpt connections here though. Just my opinion.

for the lpt jtag i use 30AWG but using CAT5 could potentially be easier handling wise

I know that. However, I have seen that EXACT device before; it's a USB NIC

i'm assuming that you only want to use the ports right? even though you use it, still it will not work. and if you use the whole circuit?.still it will not work too. better use the usb jtag flasher.
