@fcwilt
Okay, thanks!!
Yes, I have a computer where I'm connecting the duet by at ethernet cable. -

Okay, thanks!!
Yes, I have a computer where I'm connecting the duet by at ethernet cable.Do you know how to open the Command Line window?

Yes that is the command line window.
Please enter:
ipconfig
and press the Enter key.
You should see something like this:
The lines
IPv4
Subnet Mask
Default Gateway
are the ones I am interested in.Frederick

It sounds like the configuration might be resetting itself when attempting to re-establish the connection or set the IP through YAT. What's odd is that while the macros and configurations for components like the BLtouch remain intact, it's specifically the config/g that seems to be affected.

Fantastic.
If you are directly connecting your computer to the Duet you need to set the Duet IP address to something that falls within the range of addresses your computer is expecting.
Using the subnet mask you can compute the range which is:
172.23.32.2 through 172.23.39.254 with the exception of the computers address of 172.23.36.34
Now if I were faced with having lost the contents of the SD card I would resort to connecting the SD card to my computer using an SD-to-USB adapter.
Then using a text editor, NotePad or the like, to create the bare minimum config.g file so I could then connect directly to the Duet from my computer.
Something like this:
; =================================================================================================== ; config.g - just enough to get connected - beginning of file ; =================================================================================================== ; **************************************************************************************************** ; prologue ; **************************************************************************************************** M111 S0 ; debug off M550 P"FT5" ; machine name (can be anything you like) M555 P1 ; firmware compatibility (P1=RepRap P2=Marlin P6=nanoDLP) M575 P0 B115200 S2 ; communication parameters for USB serial M575 P1 B115200 S1 ; communication parameters for PanelDue M552 P172.23.32.2 S1 ; set address (P) enable Ethernet (S1) M553 P255.255.248.0 ; set subnet mask (P) M554 P172.23.32.1 ; set gateway (P) M586 S1 P1 T0 R21 ; enable (S1) FTP (P1) Disable TLS (T0) Port (R) M586 S1 P2 T0 R2323 ; enable (S1) Telnet (P2) Disable TLS (T0) Port (R) G21 ; dimensions in mm G90 ; for X,Y,Z use absolute coordinate values M83 ; for E0,E1,etc use relative coordinate values ; =================================================================================================== ; config.g - just enough to get connected - end of file ; =================================================================================================== -
@fcwilt
Hii!!!By connecting the SD card to my computer and restoring the previous config.g file, I successfully established a connection to the DWC :D.However, I've noticed that I'm currently using the previous IP address instead of the ones you suggested.
Would it be advisable to change it to the recommended IP addresses, or should I leave it as is since the current setup is working fine?"
Thanks a lot!!!

I see the issue.
When you took a screen shot from running Windows IPconfig you selected the WiFi connection, not the Ethernet connection - and I did not notice that - my mistake.
If you ran IPconfig again and looked for the Ethernet connection it would have a similar address to that one that is working for you.

Oh yes, my bad sorry.
Do you have any idea of why that happened and why it restart the config?
Thank you so much for your help

From a distance, via this forum it's hard to tell what may have happened.
I make a point of keeping multiple backups of all the files on my SD card.
I guess you know that you can, from the DWC, select all the Gcode files in the SYSTEM folder and download them to your computer as a ZIP file.
I just name it something like PRINTER_NAME_SNAP_#.zip where # is a sequential number.
So I might have PRINTER_NAME_SNAP_1.zip, PRINTER_NAME_SNAP_2.zip and so on.
Is this your only printer?
Frederick

@fcwilt
Okay!!Yes, I used to regularly save the complete configuration by downloading it directly from the DWC.
Is the printer at work just that I upgraded with the duet and is the first time this happen to me.
Thank you so much
