    I assume you have downloaded the driver zip file and unzipped both the .inf and the .cat file into the same folder. Right-click on duet.inf and select Install.

          Tried to install YAT and it wants the port that the wifi usb driver is using any way to work around that. I'm in the process of getting another computer to work then I'll try to put YAT on it. Do you have any other ideas. Thanks

            That is the correct port to use. What exactly is the problem?

                  Sounds like the port is being used by another program. Do you have Pronterface or Repetier or another program connected to that port?

                  If all else fails, reboot Windows.

                    ok here is what I did. I rebooted with the printer unhooked and no printer shows up under device manager then I plug in printer and the port shows up and the name is DuetWifi or Duet Ethernet 3d printer control electronics (com6) is this the right driver

                        Which program is giving error 5? Or is it the printer giving error 5 when you send it a command?

                          I'm using Ponterface and it does it when I try to connect. When I first put in the new board it connect with no trouble, but then the issue was when I sent the M552 S1 command it couldn't find a local network and wifi was idle

                            I'm fairly sure that Error 5 in Pronterface means that some other program has attached to that serial port already.

                              I agree a 100% with you. I just uninstalled the driver and reinstalled it. But I get the same error code. Is there an earlier driver version I could try. I have no idea what version of firmware I have on the printer

                                It's not a problem with the driver, it's something else on your PC grabbing the port. This http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/29B079481C5ECE76862578810082394E may help you work out what.

                                  Looking thru all the ports it shows com 6 blank and that's the one its connected to. I just want to use the duetwifi not become a computer expert. Any way to move to a different port. Thank you

                                    If you connect it to a different USB port on your computer, then the COM port number will change.
