Ultimaker S3, Ultimaker S5 R2
Introduction
Due to Chipageddon, some changes were implemented to the S-line electronics. The SOM board
now no longer has integrated Ethernet functionality, so the addition of a separate USB dongle is
required. The Wi-Fi connector has changed, which means the Wi-Fi antenna also must be
replaced

when touched. Turn off the printer and disconnect the power cable before starting this
procedure.
Caution: This repair involves working with or exposing sensitive electronic components.
Take ESD precautions before starting this procedure.
Note: When replacing this complete electronics assembly, the USB dongle must be
installed to ensure Ethernet functionality. Due to the different sized connector on the
Wi-Fi module, also replace the Wi-Fi antenna or transfer the old Wi-Fi module to the new
mainboard.
