WiFi yellow light - Glowforge plus

I’ve seen WiFi issues and I’ve seen yellow light issues. Would a yellow light show if it was a WiFi problem? When I do setup it appears that it successfully connected but it stays on focusing and shows a yellow light.

Just trying to see if I can rule out WiFi before focusing on something else

WiFi is always good to rule out. Have you done a phone hotspot test to be sure?

Generally yellow lights indicate temperature issues and purple lights indicate connection issues but, like you seem to be implying, WiFi can cause all kinds of weirdness.

I’d troubleshoot temperature issues and WiFi issues.

Check out #20 for overheating tips:

And the help pages have extensive WiFi troubleshooting guides.

This is most likely an issue with the focuser, printer head, or potential overheating. If you’re still seeing issues with the printer getting stuck after the hotspot and overheating troubleshooting, I’d reach out to our Support team. We can review the printer’s log files for any captured data coinciding with the instances of the Yellow light to narrow down the cause and best resolution path.
