The MPT and and MFI hardware are different beasts.  I'm aware of your
MPT problem and I understand the basic thing that is wrong, but I don't
yet have a quick solution for you.  I'm still working on it.  In the
mean time, I urge you to swap your cables and check your termination to
ensure that this isn't a false problem on your end.
