that other users have also had issues. There has been some suggestion that USB cables are an issue.
This is a problem. I previously used a different board with a Spartna FPGA and a Digilent JTAG Hs3, and I was able to program the board very reliably - in a second or two. I was able to put a PicoBlaze on the target with no problems, and update the code very efficiently. However that board is no longer available, so I selected the CMod as a replacement for a project which is quite critical.
I just don't have time for flaky interfaces, debugging other people's problems, or randomly swapping cables and hoping. Is there any way to program the CMOD with the HS3? Is there any proven resolution for the USB programming problem?

I just received one of these boards and have been able to carry out the most basic tutorials, but the programming interface seems very flaky.
I note on other forum threads like this:

that other users have also had issues. There has been some suggestion that USB cables are an issue.
