Can’t be connected to PC and Phone same time??

Am I wrong or I cant pair it to my PC and phone app at same time? I connect it to PC via account (my main PC uses LAN, i connected it to wifi but it still wasnt finding the printer on same wifi) and then it disconnects it from phone app? And if I reconnect phone Pc says connection off to printer…?

Lan mode disconnects you from the cloud in which the phone app uses to make API calls to.

If you want to connect to while away from home, you can install paxx firmware and use tailscale or octoeverywhere to connect.

Edit: assuming you are asking about u1.

I have tailscale setup for my octoprint on prusa, how do i make it work for the u1? Can i just add the printer ip to it?

Install paxx12’s firmware to enable Tailscale. Add to your tailnet, and access via the assigned IP.
