COM Ports - Help !!!

I have been trying to use a USB cable to connect my Origin B2 GPS speed camera device to the web for updates. I keep getting a message:

"Cannot open COM Port"

I have 3 USB ports on my computer, one of which connects to my Broadband modem. I don't know which USB port corresponds to which "COM Port" and have tried all the variations (the initiial
dialog box offers "Connect to - COM1 - COM4".)

I seem to remember in the good old days there was a COM Port section in Control Panel but if there was, it aint there now.

Any ideas ?

Cheers, Scottie
