As title.
Had to manually unplug OpenPuck, connect original puck, connect controller back to the original puck and just after that the update passed through

The controller I'm sure needs a USB connection to update, I've always had to do it on USB by unplugging the Puck and plugging the controller onto the USB cable. (I've never considered attaching it to the real puck).

Yeah, slight correction because @lininjim2 mentioned it:
I had to plug original puck and the controller to the system.

If controller is plugged in via USB while OpenPuck is connected - it doesn't work as well. Even if controller is turned off beforehand.

edit: which sucks, because I use OpenPuck as an internal solution, connected to the USB motherboard header directly.
