So happy with this board 😀

For RepRapFirmware Raspberry Pi to SKR 1.3/1.4/PRO/GTR

I ordered and paid 16 dec 2021 this part and another item. Send 2 messages to the seller, not responding. Complain send to Tindie support now. On 15 jan 2022 still not received the ordered items. I live in the Netherlands, shipping from the seller (Germany) to my country takes 2 days normally. According the others reviews: don’t buy from this guy. Maybe he is sick, or death or whatever: but it looks you don’t get your ordered and paid items.. Really disappointed…

Correction: after 10 minutes he contacted me by whatsapp: will send the items with tracking now.
So, maybe he had to change his shipping and communication methods. I will add a new review later as soon as i got the items!

8 feb 2022 (new review)
I have received the ordered items last week, Peter send it again: first with UPS (no tracking possible by a mistake of the courier and package lost..). Another attempt, but now shipping with DPD: tracking was ok and I got the items!!!
Peter did his best, really appreciated!!!
I had some trouble first to get the reprap firmware into my Skr1.4pro board (i am modding my Craftbot Plus printer), but after loading a new boatloader into the Skr i could upload the reprap firmware. Now I am busy with tuning and will try to get my neopixel and a bltouch working too. Only tested this rpi-board with a Rpi3, works good. I have some issues with the printerconnection sometimes, but i think that’s a tuning issue. I will test the esp-boards later, but I am sure that will work too!
Peter: keep on the good work (and use DPD for shipping 😀).
So: if you have a reprap compatible board, buy one of Peter’s creations!!!

Excellent. "Does exactly what it says on the tin"

For RepRapFirmware WiFi Adapterboard for SKR1.3/1.4

A good bit of kit that has proved reliable in use.
I bought this after reading a few reviews and was not disappointed. The board is a neat design, came well packaged and undamaged. Despatch was fast but delivery was a bit slow but that is due to the postal system, Christmas, New Year, Covid19, and Brexit. I'd pay for the tracking option next time :-)
I'm new to the SKR/RRF setup and after a couple of false starts, caused by my inability to follow the good instructions correctly, the adapter works flawlessly.
I am planning to build another machine and will be ordering another adapter in the future.
Highly recommended.
I gave three stars for communication only because there wasn't any (no need) and there isn't a N/A option. Reading other reviews it sounds good.

Works great, arrived fast

For RepRapFirmware WiFi Adapterboard for SKR Pro

This daughterboard works fine with my BTT SKR Pro v1.2 running RepRapFirmware. I plugged it in and it worked just as described in the STM32 RepRapFirmware wiki. I'm using this combination to upgrade a Robo3D R1+ printer, and I have a genuine Duet 2 WiFi in a Kossel XL printer. So far, the Web UI seems to work identically on the two printers, give or take differences caused by the fact that they're very different printers. The Robo3D with the SKR Pro and this WiFi daughterboard does seem to take just a little longer to reboot and connect, but the difference isn't huge, and I don't know if it's because of the SKR Pro, the WiFi module, or something else. Overall, I'm very pleased with this product. If you want to run RepRapFirmware on a BTT control board, this will let you do it.

Good hardware, good support

For RepRapFirmware WiFi Adapterboard for SKR1.3/1.4

After a short delay I received the pre-flashed board and everything worked very nicely. Thanks again for your efforts, Peter! Cheers!

SBC and ESP module

For RepRapFirmware WiFi Adapterboard for SKR1.3/1.4

I love both it worked great i had some issue with the ESP losing packets but with SBC is perfect , with ESP you have to put it far from the power supply and close to the wifi , but in general both are great

Product professionnaly made, with good support.

For RepRapFirmware WiFi Adapterboard for SKR1.3/1.4

Product is made professionally. It facilitates converting amazing cheap motherboard for 3D printers to premium product. Author has good website with clear instructions to use it. He also help online with many ppl from discord community. All problems come only form Rep Rap Firmware, not from product itself. Only flaw is delivery time but it is covid related.

So easy to use and to add WiFi to the LPC port of RRF3

For RepRapFirmware WiFi Adapterboard for SKR1.3/1.4

At first I was a bit nervous of no tracking and Deutsche Post taking over a week to send locally from Berlin to Berlin, but it eventually arrived in the post box. Opening the packet, there was just the board as specced. A little bit of fiddling to find the required documentation and settings and boom! It worked out the box. Would be great to offer a small printout with board.txt settings and a link to discord and other product docs in the envelope.
I was so impressed with the device I ordered a second!

nice plug and play product

For RepRapFirmware WiFi Adapterboard for SKR1.3/1.4

I had some difficulties because the exp1 and exp2 cablew were longer than should...so with the shorter ones everything is working perfect
