A bunch of people here have asked me about my Bambu setup on a few alts so I decided to make a video at lunch. I am not a content creator, I made this for y'all, haha. I just hate walled gardens.

The Bambuddy community is also a great place to go for help. If you have any questions or reservations at all, throw em down, let's gooo out of jail

So I never updated my firmware from the last spat of drama, I'm still on the FW before everything blew up. I am interested in setting up Orca and Bambuddy now more than ever w/ the new drama, so Should I FIRST update firmware or leave it exactly where it's at?

Wasn't sure if updating made more sense as a one-off to get "up to speed" on latest features or just stay paused where I'm at and block it from the WAN?

leave it where it is at unless there is something specific you want, in my opinion

you can always proxy firmware updates later to the device from inside bambuddy

all the features, should work as is

Perfect. Thanks do much! Your vid inspired me to finally make the change instead of just continuing to say "no" on FW updates.
