All,
If you've been trying to use a DGT board with chess.com for the past couple of years, it has been frustrating at best. Many of us gave up and only used DGT with Lichess.
I recently received an email from Millennium Chess advertising a new Chrome extension that works with their boards. It is called Chessconect. I checked it out, and it also has support for DGT!

I just tried this with my DGT board and it worked great! I've only played two games against the bots (something that was not possible before on chess.com), and one live unrated game. But so far it has worked flawlessly!
This may be the solution DGT owners have been waiting for to use their boards on chess.com!
Hope it works for you as well as it did for me.
p.s. I have nothing to do with this Chrome extension - just a happy user so far

Thanks, I have been looking at the smart boards. And this fixes one of the issues with the DGT boards.
But I am still leaning to the Chessnut Pro. As the DGT has no move indicator lights as an option.
