Using Octoprint from Raspberry Pi or connected directly to my computer using USB will give me a communication error after a short time & the printer stops. Printing directly from the SD card does not cause my printer to stop. Unless there is a problem on the USB connection on my computer & raspberry the problem looks like it points to somewhere in the USB circuitry of the arduino. Is that logic not correct? I have also tried 2 different USB ports on my computer with the same problem. Is there some Ethernet shield that I could attach to the arduino mega instead of using the USB connection?

What I do not understand is how I have been using it successfully for 1.5 years without this problem & all of a sudden I have a problem. If the fact that USB does not support real time protocol played into this problem, wouldn't I have had a problem a long time ago? I have 2 to 3 thousand hours of printing on this printer.
What electronics are you using on your printer and how do you connect to it?
Please explain to me how to...
