Arduino not seeing ESP32

Hi There

 

I've recently bought a DFRobot FireBeetle (DFR0654) and I struggling to get it to show up in the serial ports with in Arduino 

 

I have tried adding the correct board via boards manager and have added ‘https://download.dfrobot.top/FireBeetle/package_DFRobot_index.json’ to the Additional boards manager URLs but it errors with the following error 

 

Some indexes could not be updated. Get "https://download.dfrobot.top/FireBeetle/package_DFRobot_index.json": x509: “*.dfrobot.com.cn” certificate name does not match input: https://download.dfrobot.top/FireBeetle/package_DFRobot_index.json

 

Does any one know what I need to fix this ? also is the not having the correct board info the reason the board isn't showing up in the port window or is this something different 

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated 

 

Cheers

http://download.dfrobot.top/FireBeetle/package_DFRobot_index.json 

HTTP works for me, but my Mac still can't see the device even after installing it.

Here is a thread about the installation process of this board. You can get a clue from here:

Thanks for getting back me I have been through tips but nothing seem to help, 

 

Thing I am getting rather than anyone else is that the board just isn't showing in up ports of Arduino.

 

Should just be a simple as plug the board in and the board should show up in the serial ports or am I missing a step ?

 

Cheers

Sorry I should of added I've tested on 2 x Macs, 1 Mac mini running os12.4 and MacBook Pro M1 also running 12.4, I have tested other esp32 on the same machine and they show up fine
