Hey, =


I tried upgrading the Firmware of my CSR-based D-Link DBT-120 B3.
Unfortunately, the upgrade seems to have failed: The D-Link's light
don't light up anymore and no USB-device is detected when plugging
in the device.

Is there a known way to force the Dongle to boot into DFU-Mode? Or
is it hopelessly flashed to death?

Thanks, =


greetings, =

andy
