Anything else?

I just tried f4224e9 after trying 2.3.2 public release on my P1S with firmware 01.04.00 and my A1 mini with firmware 01.01.02.01, and it shows "Failed to connect to printer." when adding via access code on both. Both printers work fine with Orca 2.2.0 (mostly, occasional crash on upload) and are in Lan Only mode. This appears to be the same as https://github.com/OrcaSlicer/OrcaSlicer/issues/12326 however that one is marked as closed when it still does not work.
