Re: [NTLK] NCU via usb?

NCU is the way to go. I have found that my USB-serial adapter is not as
reliable as a fixed hardware serial port. I have to drop my serial speed
to 9600 baud on the keyspan, and even then packages over 200 or 300k
tend to error out rather than completing.

This also effects NTK which works fine for basic tethered use but fails
at package installing...
