You can unban yourself if needed. It also sends me reports to investigate the ban.
DO NOT USE MOBILE / CGNAT DEVICES WHERE THE IP CHANGES CONSTANTLY!
At this time, it is unfortunately not possible to whitelist users when your IP changes constantly.
You may inadvertently get banned because a previous attack may have used the IP you are now on.
So I suggest people only use fixed IP address devices until I can think of a solution for this problem!

Sill needs cleaning up. I'm doing another PSU recap soon so I may see how good a fit it is whilst I have it stripped down.
Looking good! Had forgotten all about the PSU bracket in the mix of everything.
Didn't have a single issue last night, I simply auto homed the bed, sent the print job and walked away. Maybe looking at it to see progress made it go wonky!

I've also added logging to the jobs now, so anything goes wrong, I should know why hopefully.

So tried for a couple hours to get the top motherboard working. It was the one I was using to test boosters , RAM, 1772 kits etc.. it was all working with the SEC booster when I put it on my shelf.. took it off a few days ago.. nope.. can't even get it working as a stock machine. So gave up and started fitting out the board at the bottom.

So far, CPU socketed added, 1772 socket, blitter added, SIL's changed to 2.2K... 1772 resistor mod added. DMA pullups added.. RAM all in sockets... next to remove the ROM's for sockets... lots of fun.. not.

At least it's already got a glitter
If it ain't broke, test it to Destruction.
