Need help connecting to a previously working system

[Charles_Merkel]

After a lengthy time away from 3D printing, I managed to get restarted. However, I had missed several updates so I just started over with rebuilding the RPi device in accordance with the instructions making sure to get the latest python3 etc. And then making sure I had the updated octopi on the Win11 pc.
When I tried to run it, it will not connect. I can ping the RPi from the pc, made sure the (Printer MK3S+) is updated and the RPi port is ON. When I try to connect, I appears to start but then fails with message as shown in the screenshot attached. Before my setback, this system worked flawlessly. So I am blaming this whole problem on operator problems.

What did you already try to solve it?

I have reread the installation instructions and it appears I haven't missed anything. I have uploaded the System Bundle, Latest log and a screenshot

Have you tried running in safe mode?

I don't know anything about safe more

V 1.11.4, V 1.0.0, Python 3.11.2, Prusa MK3S+ V3.14.1-8237, RPi Bookworm, Win11pro 10.0.26200 build 26200

@Charles_Merkel

and the RPi port is ON

are you connecting to the pi from the GPIO pins or using a USB cable? If you're using a USB cable, you want this setting turned off.

Thank you. That was it. I sure don't recall that from my previous operation but then again I have slept a couple of times since then. That's what happens when you get old.
Also, I do not see anyway to mark this as solved. I don't see a page that looks like the link above shows.
Can you take care of that for me, please?
