I am guessing the latest update broke wifi? My printer won't connect. Wifi toggle is now defaulted to off and the toggle to turn it on is grayed-out and un-selectable, option to setup wifi is also un-selectable- entire box is gray. Scrolling down below the option for Ethernet is still active.  It was connecting just fine last week.

 

-restarted multiple times.

-checked the wifi this machine connects to is up and running

 

S5 with Material Feeder

Firmware 8.1.1

    Sorry to hear your having wifi issues.
    Its odd that the update would have caused this, as there was no updates that I am aware off that impacted Wifi functionality or drivers in this round of updates.
    Do you know what version you were on before you updated by chance?

    Additionally, I would highly recommend reaching out to UltiMaker Support directly so they can help you with this issue.
    UltiMaker does not offer official support via the community.

     

    You can create a support request here: https://support.makerbot.com/s/contactsupport

    I recommend including your machine's log files as that will likely be the first thing they ask you for.

    @paulpugh

     

    I am sorry to hear you are having problems with the WiFi.

    Could you please restart the printer, try again and export the logs to a USB drive and share them here? The restart will probably not solve your issue, but helps us locate the problem in the logs. Without the log files there is unfortunately very little I can do to help you.

     

    Besides this, I would recommend to contact support like @Dustin pointed out, or contact your reseller.

      • UltiMaker Cura 5.3 stable released
        In this stable release, Cura 5.3 achieves yet another huge leap forward in 3D printing thanks to material interlocking! As well as introducing an expanded recommended print settings menu and lots of print quality improvements. Not to mention, a whole bunch of new printer profiles for non-UltiMaker printers!

      • Here it is. The new UltiMaker S7
        The UltiMaker S7 is built on the success of the UltiMaker S5 and its design decisions were heavily based on feedback from customers.
         
         
        So what’s new?
        The obvious change is the S7’s height. It now includes an integrated Air Manager. This filters the exhaust air of every print and also improves build temperature stability. To further enclose the build chamber the S7 only has one magnetically latched door.
         
        The build stack has also been completely redesigned. A PEI-coated flexible steel build plate makes a big difference to productivity. Not only do you not need tools to pop a printed part off. But we also don’t recommend using or adhesion structures for UltiMaker materials (except PC, because...it’s PC). Along with that, 4 pins and 25 magnets make it easy to replace the flex plate perfectly – even with one hand.
         
        The re-engineered print head has an inductive sensor which reduces noise when probing the build plate. This effectively makes it much harder to not achieve a perfect first layer, improving overall print success. We also reversed the front fan direction (fewer plastic hairs, less maintenance), made the print core door magnets stronger, and add a sensor that helps avoid flooding.
         

         
        The UltiMaker S7 also includes quality of life improvements:
        Reliable bed tilt compensation (no more thumbscrews) 2.4 and 5 GHz Wi-Fi A 1080p camera (mounted higher for a better view) Compatibility with 280+ Marketplace materials Compatibility with S5 project files (no reslicing needed) And a whole lot more  
        Curious to see the S7 in action?
        We’re hosting a free tech demo on February 7.
        It will be live and you can ask any questions to our CTO, Miguel Calvo.

      • UltiMaker Cura Alpha 🎄 Tree Support Spotlight 🎄
        Are you a fan of tree support, but dislike the removal process and the amount of filament it uses? Then we would like to invite you to try this special release of UltiMaker Cura. Brought to you by our special community contributor @thomasrahm
         
        We generated a special version of Cura 5.2 called 5.3.0 Alpha + Xmas. The only changes we introduced compared to UltiMaker Cura 5.2.1 are those which are needed for the new supports. So keep in mind, this is not a sneak peek for Cura 5.3 (there are some really cool new features coming up) but a spotlight release highlighting this new version of tree supports.
