I've used Toshibas FlashAir Wifi SD cards in all my printers, mapped as WebDAV shares, so it shows up as a drive in Windows - or via the built in (very rudimentary) browser upload page. Love it.
Works great in all of them, except for my Ultimaker 2+. No chance getting it to work, even tried the competing Transcend WifiSD, same problem, no go. It would require firmware change.
I stopped using them when I got hooked on Reptier-Server (the non free Octoprint alternative).
Thanks for the tip, I'll give Reptier-Server a try
Are you using a Raspberry Pi to control you UM2?

For some reason Repetier-Server fits my personal needs better than OctoPrint. And yes, I am running it on a Raspberry Pi 3. Currently controlling my UM2+ and two other printers at the same time.
Also got a cheap (less than 45 Euros) Chinese Android tablet sitting next to it so I can start/stop prints right then and there. (I initially planned on buying the Raspberry 7" Touch Display but never got around to it)
Very happy with the setup now.
