I think the raspberry pie five and Mesa set up is really quite brilliant. It’s very compact, and boots up really fast. The only negative i have found is that it’s difficult to put an external Wi-Fi antenna on the pie. If the pie is inside a metal box, it won’t connect easily to a Wi-Fi router. You can get around this by using an external Wi-Fi dongle. Or move the excess point and pie closer together.

The reason I was running that test was because packets were being lost between the raspberry pie and the Mesa board. I couldn’t figure out why. It was suggested to change a setting (I forget which one, but it is documented on The Forum) and after that there was zero packet loss.

Hallo PCW, 
ich habe noch einige andere Einstellungen versucht aber ohne Erfolg.
Eigentlich ist das Hobby fräsen und nicht Einstellungen in Linux CNC zu testen.
Deshalb habe ich überlegt einen Raspberry Pi 5 8gb zu kaufen. Jederzeit verfügbar, ein fertiges Image, kein raten / testen, passt bequem in den Schaltschrank. 

Hältst du das für sinnvoll?

Grüße Erwin 
 

Whole bunch of answers here and the appropriate place to discuss it.

You'll have to give a description of your setup, what image are you using, what is the latency & ping times.

Hello, unfortunately I don't have a contribution to your CAM system, but I do have a question about the Raspberry Pi 5 and Linux CNC On the current PC I have problems with the latency, especially in the Ethernet connection to the 7i96s. Unfortunately, this always leads to unexpected stops of the machine. The last PC was no better and I don't want to buy a third one that will cause problems. My hope is that the Raspberry Pi 5 will work easily and without problems, even if it is a bit more expensive than a second-hand PC. Replacement would also be possible at any time. Now to the question What are your experiences with the pi 5 and which version are you using? Which SD card? Any special settings? Thank you very much Greetings Erwin
