Are FDRS servers down? I've tried to login for the last 4 days and get the "cannot reach FDRS servers" error. Yet when I check my connection everything is PASS and green. ?????

I don't have access to FDRS, but I'm going to go out on a limb and say they are not down. @rugedraw has had access and posted updates from FDRS from others wanting an update on their truck. It appears to be working.

I don't have access to FDRS at the time, but this is what PTS is showing pending for you:

You can just try pestering them to do it, but the thing is some of those modules can take a really long time to update and if you have a bunch, it can practically take all day. I think this is one of the big reasons they won't do it.

gotcha, all they do is gotta click update and walk away right? And just go through the steps.

Eh, in my experience it seems to need a bit of babysitting, every module has to be done individually...some of the modules require power cycles... I had one seem to fail and just kept cycling through for hours and I finally had to sort of hard crash FDRS to get it to stop. That turned out ok, it had installed but was failing some sort of check...so, not quite set it and forget it!

Sounds like a pain. Is there anyway to get ahold of this programming for a normal person?

I believe there is someone, may be more than one person, on here that sort of has a loaner program for them...
I do. I have two of them. The waiting is list is weeks long at this point, but I can add anyone that wants to borrow one to it.

@Andrewbens If you're interested, PM me and I'll send you the link to the thread. I have posted it here before and it gets deleted.

Alright lightning team, could use some help. I’ve got the mongoose, and having trouble trying to install the sw and drivers into a virtual windows 11 machine in my MacBook Pro. Have any of you done this…and/or do you know for a fact a virtual machine just won’t work?

Have used virtual machines plenty in the past, but can see windows 11 isn’t recognizing the device correctly after installing the software suite.
Thanks for any help.
