What is problem? (only list ONE problem per report)
Web interface sees the adapter, but will not connect. "GATT operation failed for unknown reason."
What did you expect to happen?
To connect the adapter to blueretro.io and adjust button mapping.

I've been trying for hours to get this thing to connect. Wiped the adapter of any controllers, tried different computers, browsers, rolling back Chrome to ver. 104, connecting to a different network, but I'm still getting the above message. Anything I'm missing?
I would just update the firmware manually at this point since you're on 1.8.4: https://github.com/darthcloud/BlueRetro/wiki/Flashing-firmware-Windows-10 Then try again?
Firmware: https://darthcloud.itch.io/blueretro/purchase
I wonder if it is even possible to edit the config without using the site? Please confirm if this is possible and how.
I would still do the manual firmware update. That error I believe has to do with failure to connect with the web-bluetooth service. Try in another tab maybe? I've had problems since day one connecting and it was a hit or miss. Firmware updates were also a pain and flashing to another because it would drop before 100%. Just do the manual way and try again?
For the profile mapping and stuff I'm guessing if there isn't an offline way provided one would need to make a custom firmware with those settings? Not sure what is on the server side for the site as I haven't looked but I guess one could rip the site and if the profiles are handled with JSON it shouldn't be much to edit and make that work.
I'm not quite sure how to do a manual firmware update when it won't connect to a computer via bluetooth. Do I need to break it out of its casing to plug it in directly to the computer? Also, Doing a bit more research, since it is technically a "Retro Scaler" adapter their website says to not update it with the Darth Cloud firmware but to use theirs, so this could be why I'm having issues..
I'm not 100% sure with RetroScaler but they have instructions for the N64 one here to do it manually: https://github.com/RetroScaler/N64-Blueretro
I'm also having this problem. I have been able to connect this RetroScaler N64 adapter before, but then I updated to I think 1.8.2 if I remember correctly, and now I can't even connect to Chrome to update again. These are the log messages it gives me:
Requesting Bluetooth Device... Connecting to GATT Server... Getting BlueRetro Service... app_ver_is_hw2: false app_name_is_hw2: false Init Cfg DOM... > Bluetooth Device disconnected
I think this is related to running a custom retroscaler FW.
I fixed the OTA page to allow updating those to latest firmware. Doing so should fix the advance page access as well.
See #954
