Having a bit of trouble with bootloader

Post by kevinmcnasty »

I'm in the process of flashing the firmware on one of my Goteks and I have everything hooked up correctly but I can't get "Device Detected" to show up in the status bar. It just says "link is up!" The only thing I can come up with is that the FTDI chip in the cable I'm using is an FT232RQ and not the FT232RL (I did install the Driver BTW). This is the one I'm using:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00DJ ... UTF8&psc=1

Any help is greatly appreciated :(

The moral of this story is to make sure your login info on the bootloader is correct. It IS case sensitive :mrgreen:
