Argh. Yes, maybe that’s what I will need to do then. I’ll try it. Looks like the earliest vintage of UHD that’s available is Feb 2014 (v3.4.0), which is about 4 years after the Rev2 N210, I think. So that UHD version may still be too recent to work with the Rev2 N210. That’ll be my last attempt before abandoning the thing as you did with yours.
Thanks for the comments and help, Jason. Good luck with your projects!
