I had the same problem I bought the interface for 295.00 I think. Then another
18.00 for the cable (a generic one doesn’t work neither does the mindstorm one )
& 69.00 For Robolab 2.5. I got everything working but I didn’t like it’s

I bought at

9751 interface
9768 cable
Mindstorms for schools cd-rom

I also found

Search for: Control lab
LEGO Serial Cable for PC (W979768)
Or
LEGO Serial Cable for Mac (W979769)

Or follow link  and go to the second page

HTH

If anyone is interested I would let the system go including software for 235.00
us
Or 200.00 if you don’t need the AC Adapter (W979833)
Everything is like new and I have the original box, manual & Documentation
I can e-mail a picture upon request
