Arduino(s) not resetting on Serial connection lost / re-established - why?
What you have done is to disable the "HUPCL" signal that is sent when the port is opened/closed.
You can turn the signal back on with:
$ stty -F /dev/ttyACM3 hupcl
And you can turn it off again ...

what ftdi windows driver for arduino nano
The Official Arduino Nano has an FTDI FT232RL.
You want to use the Virtual Com Port(VCP) Driver so the FTDI device appears as a COM port under windows.
See the getting started guide for details.

Programming ATmega2560 processor with FTDI instead of ATmega32
In fact, the basic Arduino Mega (with the ATmega 1280) utilizes an FT232RL, so yes, it will work if you connect it correctly.
It is only the newer Mega2560 (along with the similar-generation Uno, etc)...

Can Arduino be used as an FDTI Programmer?
Yes. Tie the reset pin on the ISP connector low to keep the ATmega328P in reset, then you can connect pins 0 and 1 to the ESP module to communicate using the Uno's USB-UART bridge. Since the pins are ...

How do I reset an ESP8266 with an FTDI and no reset button?
Pull the reset pin up by connecting it to 3.3v with a 10k ohm resistor, then to reset the ESP you temporarily ground the pin, bringing it down to 0v/GND.
I'd recommend putting in a button for that :)
