Same here. I went through 3 Netgear’s and a Linksys in as many years and said no more. Moved to Ubiquiti and haven’t looked back. My current dream machine of two years replaced a still working but older/slower cloud gateway of 5 yrs with AC Pro’s and now a WiFi 7 AP. The last NetGear I replaced cost more than the Cloud Gateway + AC Pro. And the latter was way faster with better coverage.

Everyone’s got different luck with computer gear though. I know I’ve had bad luck with things other people rave about, so choices are great to have.

If it’s not clogged (change your print nozzle if yours is easily swappable), make sure the heat is right on the hotend. Extruder skipping can happen if the material isn’t melting fast enough to have the right viscosity and hence the extruder just can’t squeeze it out fast enough. As a corollary, try slowing down your print and raising the temp a bit.

I love OpenSCAD because not only can I easily parameterize things, and define libraries for commonly used stuff but I can also combine it with my Git setup to get all the benefits of code provenance and backups and change sets and such.
