I purchased 2 Arduino Uno Ethernet boards last week and have now just started to fuss with them.
Using a FTDI cable, I cannot upload any code (tried the Blink example). It returns:
avrdude: stk500_getsync(): not in sync: resp=0x00
when holding down Shift and uploading, it returns:
avrdude: usbdev_open(): did not find any USB device "usb"
While I am not a complete noOb to Arduino. The correct board, and USB port is selected. (Arduino Uno as per instructions on adafruit.com, also tried Arduino Ethernet, both fail).
So, I then tested my FTDI cable, just to make sure. (http://www.ladyada.net/wiki/ftditest, passed).
After asking around in ##arduino on freenode, and using google, It turns out the bootloader is sometimes funky on these ones, and I found this site:
http://arduino.cc/en/Tutorial/ArduinoISP
I tried that. It didn't work.
I then found:
http://scuola.arduino.cc/en/content/upg ... st-version
- I wired up a Uno to the Ethernet Uno per the instructions.
- I downloaded the bootloader, and loaded it into Arduino IDE 1.0.3.
- Flashed to Uno
- Loaded up Serial @ 19200.
- Nothing...
I tried using command (win7 box), to use AVRDUDE in the last setting of that tutorial... and it still won't communicate.
I'm not sure where/what to try next. Any help would be appreciated, as my prototype is ready for testing! (http://imgur.com/whfRe)

Re: Arduino Uno Ethernet
Did you install the uno drivers as instructed? Does the port show up in device manager( if you are using windows)?

So yes, Uno drivers are installed... but the Ethernet Uno uses a FTDi cable for communication, which... when installed doesn't show as Arduino UNO R3 in the Device Manager; It shows up as Serial to USB (COM7).

Re: Arduino Uno Ethernet
Shift/Upload is no longer the verbose mode (as of version 1.0.1 I believe). To get verbose output, open File->Preferences and check the box for verbose output on upload.when holding down Shift and uploading, it returns:

Re: Arduino Uno Ethernet
So the board is not responding at all. Do you see any led activity when you attempt the upload?

Re: Arduino Uno Ethernet
When connecting using the FTDi cable, the "ON" LED turns on, as well as the one next to it, "Lg". the "Lg" (or "L9") turns off after roughly 5-10~ seconds.
When attempting to upload, the Tx and Rx flash a few times on the FTDi chip, but no LEDs flicker on the board.
W/ my multimeter, the 5v shows 4.8v. I tested it on another Uno board, which powers everything (Ethernet Shield + Protoshield w/ SHX11 and Photocell) just fine with the displayed 4.8v.
Not sure if it's a bad unit, as... what are the chances of 2 units being shipped together to the customer (from manufacture -> distro -> consumer) and both be faulty?

Re: Arduino Uno Ethernet
The Rx is flashing, but you are not seeing any response from the board in the verbose output. Sounds like a problem with the cable. Try a different USB port.When attempting to upload, the Tx and Rx flash a few times on the FTDi chip

I thought that might be it, but this FTDi setup has flashed my multiwii multirotor flight controller w/o a problem.adafruit_support wrote:The Rx is flashing, but you are not seeing any response from the board in the verbose output.

I ordered another FTDi cable from Adafruit.com, hopefully that'll be here by Friday or Saturday. I will report back then.

Re: Arduino Uno Ethernet
YAY one more change to have to keep up with! Thanks Team Arduino ! Change something else for the sake of change. And then again. Be like Microsoft!adafruit_support wrote:Shift/Upload is no longer the verbose mode (as of version 1.0.1 I believe).
