   When I try to upload new firmware, I seem to get frequent failures during the FPF load. This has happened both with 3.44 and 3.52. The upload fails at different stages of the FPF load each time, seemingly with no consistency or predictability. With repeated tries, the process finally completes and the remainder of the upload goes without a hitch. Am I alone in this, or is this a problem others have seen?

It crops up fairly often, with people who use USB to serial adapters. If you have a desktop PC, consider purchasing a PCI serial board to give yourself a real serial port.
