I got the Duet 2 wifi working again. So stoked. Thank you so much for those little tips. I really like the way this board works with my Ultimate XL. Big smiles Duet 3d.

Hi there Duet users, For quite awhile I have had this loading file error, This error was not allowing files to load that were around 3 to 5 mb or larger. I was so frustrated. Most of my own drawing's/ models were over 5mb. I tried everything and asked lots of people for suggestions. I read every post and forum I could find. It seemed that not many other users were having this issue. But I did read about a few users that were having the same exact problem. So I tried everything possible. I do feel that resoldering all the pins on the wifi module and the sd card holder did help the data transfer. But still it was struggling to load larger files. So I read all the information about ajax time out errors. Also sometimes I could load a smaller file around 1 mb then as soon as it loaded, I would send the larger file of around 5mb. Many times this would let the larger file load. So I read more about this. Then I wrote down all my settings and started trying different settings in the machine specific communication area on the duet web control page. Took me a number of tests. But I nailed it. Now my files load very quickly. I have now tested this many times so I wanted to share my settings. General tab "5,000 ms" Machine specific commmunication - number of Ajax settings "6 " This was set at 4 and I feel this made the biggest difference. Update interval 250 (ms) Extended status update interval 20(ms) retry threshold for file transfer 350(ms). Now my Duet loads the larger files very fast with no errors. Running ViaCad V12 pro...and Moi3d...SuperSlicer....and my Elite Machine Works UXL. I get some amazing prints using this combination. Thank you Duet3D for making such an awesome product. I love my panel due as well. Happy New Year 2023. P.s I did read all those tech tips that a Duet tech replied to my posts awhile back. I really appreciated those tips. Peace out from Colorado.

@jens55 Thank you for the nice reply. I really appreciate that info. This little duet board sure is amazing. Peace out.

After going through all my settings, I reformatted my SD card, And re-loaded all my setup files. After I probed the bed and was ready to run a test print. I went to wipe the nozzle on my Hemera. And it moved just a small amount. I instantly knew I just found the problem. I re-tightened my nozzle and have now printed about 40 hours no problems. Just love my Duet 2 wifi board. Have a great 2024 Duet3D.
