Connecting over USB

I’m excited to give this a shot, however, my attempts at connecting the app to the board have failed miserably. I can’t seem to get the board past “[0] Getting IP…” In my own terminal, I get the following when trying to run the blynk-ser.sh script:

After a bit of research, this seems to be a socat issue. I’ve also tried changing the SER, TCP, SSL settings in the script, forwarding the ports, and rebooting my router. Any thoughts, helps, or existing posts are welcome.
