As a side note, I was unable to get Orca Slicer to work wirelessly with my machine (AD5 Pro). I used their own Flash Print (trash software, but I could upload stls and send them wirelessly to my printer. It's like a slicer for toddlers, imho).

OK so when the servers went down I got pissed I was reliant on China and their whole thing. Sure Google it, and DL and install... then OOPS update available.
