Charles, I did some testing today with the program I am trying to be able to bootload over the internet. Mind you I am only doing it for the time being over the local Ethernet. If I use the port redirector that was shipped with my NET-232 set to port 3 and the IP address of the NET-232 I am able to communicate with it. I also have a command in the program to BOOT the 18F2620 after a 10 second delay. That gives me time to shutdown the telnet program and start the MCLoader program. After the 10 seconds have elapsed I am able to get the ID information from the MCLoader program but when I try the bootloader it hangs. I took a scope and looked at the RS-232 lines to and from the 18F2620 and found that indeed the MCloader program and the 18F2620 were communicating but the characters wern't changing. I am going to take a look at the source hex file for the boot loaded code in the 18F2620 tomorrow and see what the problem might be... That is all I had time to do today...
