✔️ Stable Internet​

AutoFarm3D requires stable internet access via ethernet. Wifi can be used but is not recommended due to stability issues.

✔️ Clean Power Supply​

To prevent issues, your hubs should be connected to a clean power supply with no power dips or surges.

A UPS is highly recommended because brief power dips can cause your hubs to reboot, stopping all prints currently in progress.
