Brand new Photon, right out of the box - can’t connect it to the cloud. Blinking cyan with red flashes. The Tinker app setup fails Using the CLI (on Mac running for 10.11.2) for USB setup fails Then I’ve done: Manual Firmware Update, following instructions here: https://docs.particle.io/support…

Solved!! Though I had previously flashed the server key to the device, I did it one more time, on mdma’s suggestion, after running the keys doctor command and voila!! Connected, claimed! I have indeed won the internet. Thanks so much, everyone in this thread, for hanging in there with me.
