I'm running the 4.5.3 trial of UoN. I can successfully connect and control the USB device over the network. I have one small issue that I'm facing when I reboot the USB device from the client. The server does not pick the device back up once it has been rebooted. It's grayed out in the Server window and says "Not plugged". According to the log, this is what is happening:
Here is a brief explanation of what happens. I connect to my USB device, I send some data to update it's firmware. After the firmware is updated, the device reboots.
It's at that point, that it is not re-loaded in the server, and I see the errors mentioned earlier. I have to unplug the device and replug it back in, in order to see it in the server list as a usable USB device.
