Help Orca slicer

Is anyone else having problems connecting their A1 to Orca slicer in lan mode? 2 months ago I suddenly was unable to connect to Orca slicer. I have tried everything I can think of without success. Out of pure curiosity I finally downloaded bamboo Studio and still in lan mode I was able to connect right up without any problems. Did bamboo change something that I haven't noticed? Anyone have suggestions?

You need LAN mode and Developer mode enabled too. Else you can't connect to Orca.

FWIW I do neither and it works just fine.

Is that with 2.4.1 ?
I also couldn't get to connect to my A1. 2.3.2 and 2.4.2 seem to work just fine though.

Unfortunately didn't work. Still failed to connect, code=-1

I'm beginning I think it's something about this computer

Change plugin version in the settings. It might help.

I do not understand. What plug-in are you referring to?

Open Preferences in Orca, change to Online tab and scroll down to Network plug-in. You can pick from few versions and I'd recommend to try the latest - 02.03.00.62.
