### Basic Information:

Printer Model: Homemade Delta  
 MCU / Printerboard: MKS Sbase1.4  
 Host / SBC  
 klippy.log

_Fill out above information and_ **_in all cases attach your_ `klippy.log` _file_** (use zip to compress it, if too big). _Pasting your_ `printer.cfg` _is **not** needed_  
_ **Be sure to check our “Knowledge Base” Category first. Most relevant items, e.g. error messages, are covered there** _

### Describe your issue:

Im having some connectivity issues, logging into my pi/mainsail via my laptop.

I have noticed that when I start my printer it shows on klipperscreen ‘attempting to connect to printer - Moonraker attempt 1, 2, 3’ etc. Generally connects after 2 attempts.  
Before update today it didn’t connect after 4 and then I had to restart via klipperscreen and it connected.

I have just finished a print and tried to log into the machine via ‘.local’ on my browser. It wouldn’t load at all and when I went to check the network connection on klipperscreen I got this.

"Failed to initialise  
This panel needs NetworkManager installed into the system  
And the aproperate permission, without them it will not function.

NetworkManager is a component of your Linux OS. As such, this sounds like a broken / messed up Linux installation.  
Google how to fix this kind of topics, depending on the distribution you are using.
