[sbrowne87]

has anyone managed to flash a box using a usb adaptor, i read that it hardly never works and im struggling to do it myself

I have 2 adapters that don't work.
I just use an old pc instead.

Hello Sbrowne87,
If you are going to use a USB to serial adapter make sure that it has a FTDI chipset.
