I can't for the life of me get the Dolphinbar i just received to pair up with my -TR remotes. Here's what I have tired on 2 different PCs, both running Windows 7 X64:
Ran the setup on the included driver disc.
Ensured that the firmware is upgraded to V3 (it was).
It's in "Mode 4", but this is kind of irrelevant cause I can't get the remotes to pair in any mode, I don't think its software/driver related.
Plug the Dolphinbar into my motherboards main Intel USB ports, wait for the driver to install. The 0 LED flashes steady.
Press the SYNC button, the 0 LED begins flashing fast, push the red SYNC button on the remote, the 4 LEDs on the remote flash fast, and just keep flashing as well as the 0 LED on the Dolphinbar, isn't this when they're supposed to sync up? They're less than 1 foot apart.
Purchased a brand new genuine remote from Walmart, just in the tiny chance my other one was fake, despite that I ordered it directly from Nintendo when I got my Wii U. Same problem. Both sync up fine to my Wii U.
Eliminated any possibility of interference by unplugging my Wii U from power, disabling my motherboards and phones Bluetooth, and even turning off my 2.4GHz WiFi, and trying separate PCs in separate environments. (Home and work PC)
At one point of frantically mashing the SYNC buttons on both the Dolphinbar and the remote, they did pair up and work for about 5 minutes. I was even able to shut off the remote by holding power, and after that just pushing any button on the remote would cause it to almost immediately sync up just like it's supposed to. During this brief period of cooperation, I was even able to pair up my known knock-off non MothionPlus, non -TR remote no problem. However once disconnecting and reconnecting the Dolphinbar from USB I haven't been able to get anything to pair since.
It's showing up in Devices and Printers as "Mayflash Wiimote PC Adapter", no errors.
So do you guys think that there's a definite defect with my Dolphinbar, and I should just contact my the seller for a replacement, or is there anything else that I should try first? Anyone else having this problem?
I've searched the forum and online and can't find anyone else with this specific problem, most peoples issues seem to be getting Dolphin to see the remotes once they're paired to the dolphinbar.
Thanks for your help!
