    I have assembled an ooznest workbee and it has a duet controller, cI dont know how to connect to my laptop. My connection duet is a ethernet version but my laptop doesnt have an ethernet port. I bought a ethernet to usb adaptor. Do anyone know how to connect from there, if I go ethernet route there is no ethernet port to connect to. Or do I connect through the usb. Its not very clear.

    Haven't tried this myself, but usb to ethernet adapter should work. Have you followed Ooznest's instructions (it's easy to miss a step) - it's important to set up your IPv4 settings on your PC as Ooznest suggest and use the exact IP address they specify - Ooznest configure ethernet Duet's and test them before dispatch.
    If you have set up your PC correctly type the IP address of the Duet (note that the last digit of the Duet's IP address will be different from the IP address in your IPv4 settings) into the address bar of your browser and you should connect.
    Let me know if you need the links to the relevant section on the Ooznest learning portal (tell me what version of the workbee you have)
    Alex.

    The instructions say to make a connection by going into change an adaptor and click on the ethernet port button, trouble is My laptop doesnt have an ethernet port so there is no button.
