my maestro is working like a charm. i did get it from a duet redistributor.
could it be that the boards sold by m3d where cheaped out on as well?

@jdjeff58 Thanks for the backstory. Having worked for a number of manufacturers, I know how difficult it is to cope with dissenting voices, but also know that banning them is not really the answer. Being open, engaging with them, resolving problems and getting people back on your side is really the only thing to do.
@Veti No, according to @T3P3Tony it was M3D who asked Deut3D to develop and make the Maestro! So they are genuine Duet3D boards.

Ok...that's water under the bridge. Back on topic sort of....If I get a Duet 2 Ethernet, will it be the firmware in this thread that I would want to have installed on the board?

Yes. As this firmware has only recently been released, Duets in the supply chain will probably have older firmware, likely v2.03. However, updating should be simply a case of getting the board up and running on your network, then uploading the "Duet2CombinedFirmware.bin" from the firmware release https://github.com/dc42/RepRapFirmware/releases/tag/2.04RC4 via the 'System > Upload System Files' option. Once uploaded, the Duet will ask you if you want to install the firmware and restart.

@jdjeff58 You could build a jubilee printer
Owns various duet boards and is the main wiki maintainer for the Teamgloomy LPC/STM32 port of RRF. Assume I'm running whatever the latest beta/stable build is

Thanks IAN....good to know

I appreciate that link jay. And having already looked at doing a BLV cube, I think I'm going to steer clear of these levels of DIY. At my current place on the learning curve, I really need kitted machines at the very least. That whole parts sourcing using a BOM (scratch builds) is just too daunting for me at this time.

Perhaps consider a RailCore II. Comes as a kit or prebuilt.

@Adrian52, thanks for your report. Looks like output buffers are still being lost somewhere. I will look into it.
Hello!
I want to write about buffer overflow problems.
I looked at the code of the program OutputMemory.cpp
I saw that each buffer has a time of its creation whenQueued.
And there is a GetAge function to see the age of a busy buffer.
You must make the M122 command show Used output buffers and show GetAge age for each buffer.
Maybe then it will become clear in which cases these buffers accumulate and how to fix it
