Useful Text / Warning:


Cause: Incorrect COM port settings (baud rate, data bits, stop bits) or a faulty programming cable. Fix:

Do not search for "motbsidcom" directly. Instead:

| Device Type | Driver Source | |-------------|----------------| | Motorola SURFboard (SB5100, SB6120) USB mode | No official Windows 10/11 driver – USB mode is obsolete. Use Ethernet instead. | | Old Motorola mobile phone (USB modem) | Use Motorola USB Drivers from GitHub or archived Motorola support (v4.9.0 or earlier). | | Generic CDC Serial device | Windows built-in usbser.sys – force install as "Communications Port". |

Safe download locations:


Cause: Windows Update may have overwritten the driver with a generic Microsoft driver. Fix: Roll back the driver in Device Manager > Properties > Driver > Roll Back Driver. Reinstall the Motorola driver manually.

Driver parameters often set via kernel command line or platform data:

| Parameter | Description | Example Value | |--------------|--------------------------------------|------------------| | ioaddr | Base I/O address of SCC/SMC | 0xffe40100 | | irq | Interrupt line | 9 | | baud | Baud rate | 9600, 115200 | | mode | RS-232, RS-485, HDLC, async | async | | buffer_size| Block transfer buffer size (bytes) | 1024 |

Linux device tree example (legacy):

serial@ff020000 
    compatible = "motorola,motbsidcom";
    reg = <0xff020000 0x1000>;
    interrupts = <9>;
    current-speed = <115200>;
