Show me a FW file that you have been able to flash successfully.

How can I show you something that I don't have? :-//
The RS user manual states that the file type required is a .ugf and makes no mention of .ADS which may well be the issue.
EDIT: It just worked... :-//
I guess maybe the EasyPower software is a big buggy, it does hang a bit easily. It now thinks it's a Siglent and the serial number has changed.

IIRC EasyPower accepts .ugf or ADS firmware files.
Some Siglent rebrands are reconfigured to only accept .ugf firmware.

It was an .ADS file from tv84's .zip file in https://www.eevblog.com/forum/testgear/siglent-ads-firmware-file-format/msg1830584/#msg1830584 that worked, eventually.
The wasn't any difference in how I went about it from the other attempts, all I would say is I had to close the app a couple of times using the task manager when it hung.
The calibration does not appear to have been affected, it tracks perfectly (well within the combined specs) against my Keithley 2000 on both voltage and current.

I got an SPD3303X-E yesterday and converted it to the X version based on the posts in this thread. The updated back to the latest X firmware from the Siglent site. (1.01.01.02.07R2)
Interesting thing happened. The MAC address is now set to ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff and will not get a DHCP address any longer (of course). I can assign a static IP and everything works as expected.
Wondering if anyone has seen this.

I just unlocked using the check bypass method and I kept my MAC address/serial number so it seems safer. You do not need a debugger by the way. The exe is not compressed so you can directly edit it with an hex editor like HxD.
1 - Open EasyPower.exe with an hex editor and look for 0F BE 55 0C (there is only one occurence)
2 - Just before that occurence, replace 0F 84 A4 00 00 00 by 0F 85 A4 00 00 00
3 - Flash the firmware using the new "no check version" of EasyPower you just created
