i have successfully connected my ez robot via bluetooth. everything checks out fine and the com port is working perfect. Everything is working, yet the firmware update will not recognize the robot. It's very frustrating and I've watched all the tutorials and gone through EVERY discusion. This is the message that shows up. P.S. I've tried it on different computers of different brands and still had the same results.

Nearly every issue is resolved by properly following the tutorial and ensuring you have the Microsoft Native Bluetooth Stack. This software is not supported in a Virtual Machine.
Sometimes, bluetooth gets confused and it requires a reboot. Windows is strange like that. Also ensure you are using the microsoft native bluetooth stack.
I am very new to EZ-robot and I think I am having a similar problem:
(1) I have connected the blue tooth and I see the red and blue lights blinking
(2) When I checked the blue to device it said that I am on comm 8
(3) when I run the ezbot calibration I get the following error:
Received:
Disconnected
Comm Err: Not Connected
BbytesToExpect: 0
Received:

Comm Err: Not Connected

(4) Any suggestions to what I may be doing wrong or how I should troubleshoot?
Thanks!
