laptop died, duet wifi wont connect, another 8 hours of troubleshooting both with zero positive results. now I remember why I quit printing for 4 months… not sure if I have the patience for this, may be selling it all cheap…
i want the duet if it is cheap 
Why aren’t you just using octoprint? It’s plenty more reliable.
Cristian it may be for sale cheap, the issue i have is hopefully not yours. I live ina studio in a city and there are over 100 wifi nets to choose from when I try to configure it, but it drops after like 20 seconds before i can due to interference from neighbors 15 feet away in studio apartments. anyone in a house with just a normal 30-40 foot perimeter where they know what’s using 2.4ghz and only a resonable 20-30 other wifi networks interfering should not have the issues I am.
@AlohaMilton Use a wifi analyzer and see if 5.0gHz is in use. If it’s not so crowded, I’d suggest switching your wifi over to that frequency. The other option is to electrically insulate your apartment so that a lot of that interference goes away, though, you may lose some cellular connectivity in the process.
Oh yeah, Duet Wifi may have connectivity issues in a severe wifi noise environment. (So does everything else, for that matter.) I had the same problem in a big apartment building. There’s always USB or a PanelDue.
Honestly though, I’d suggest getting a raspberry pi and hook up your printer through that, then just run a cable to your router rather than using wifi.
Duet Wifi is 2.4ghz only, but the Duet does come in an Ethernet version.
@AlohaMilton , if you’re in the US contact Filastruder and I’ll swap the Duet Wifi for a Duet Ethernet for you if you’d like.
I was going to suggest a Duet Ethernet but figured Milton wouldn’t want to spend more money
Oh I want to spend the money, but I don’t have it… just higher interest rates 
would love to swap it, I will contact Filastruder about the problem. sucks really, I had it running perfectly 5 months ago, and there were maybe 60 or so LESS names on the list of local networks. Not sure how it got to a list that scrolls forever and is over 100 networks in 4-5 months. seems really weird even for mid city. where did the new tenants and business come from? or did everyone double their active networks? slightly perplexed.
