Ok here is the story now. I could not get the USB to Serial to work with my laptop at all . Comes up as com ports 12 , 13, 14, or 15 depending on what usb port I plug it into. So I used my Old PC with Win98 and plugged it into the USB port .. Came up as com 3 .. we are in business now.. It is taking over 10 min to flash the box so far and it still downloading ... Time will tell how well this works . Not my first choice or option .... but if it works hey what the heck.
