Unable to flash firmware on PDP

I've been trying to get the PDP to take the newer firmware (1.37). It currently has 1.30.

I navigated to roborio-41.local and tried to update it through the web interface. I can see the PDP enumerated in the list, however when I click "Being Update" one tick in the progress bar lights, then I one of a few errors:

CTRE_DI_EcuIsNotPresent

CTRE_DI_DidNotGetDhcp When this happened the PDP stayed in bootloader and required a power cycle. I could not communicate with the PDP until I cycled it.

E_SYSAPI_FAIL I think this was my fault for not logging in as admin after power cycling the roboRIO.

The power distribution panel is the only thing on the CAN bus. The jumper for the terminator resistor is ON.

I have not updated the roboRio's firmware as I read that some were bricking, and I was planning on waiting until that was fixed or I read about the root cause.

Thanks
