So, my firmware update with serial/usb adapter on my Windows7 laptop failed.
I used my old XP laptop with serial to flash the PL3 and it's alive again, but I can't run the latest control software on that pc. It fails with "the procedure entry point inet_ntop could not be located in the synamic link library WS2_32.dll".
I downloaded the version that was offered when I input my OS in the downloads area.
Should it work on WinXP, then?
I can't use my windows7 laptop with the PL3, because the firmware update runs forever, with the usb adapter I have.
Alternatively, is the latest firmware for the PL3 available outside the GHL control center, so I could use the flash tool to update?
Edited to add: I found the firmware file, copied it over to my old XP laptop, and am flashing it now.
It would be great if there were a version of the control center that runs on older systems.
Oh, and where can I order a usb cable that works for firmware updates? I can't find any info about what type of cable I need, exactly, nor do I see them available to order.
