No. Wrong there also. It has nothing to do with the mesh.
well, I dont know what to tell you. Mine works on a very simple 4g router.
On another note. There appears to be a problem with SanDisk 32 GB micro SD cards not mounting with these displays. Mine wouldnāt, and thereās a couple of people on the ESP32 forum with the same issue, even though their 32gb sandisk is not the same classification as mine. Some people replied theyād had o problems, but didnāt give the model of their microSd

Just sharing my experience as Iāve been using XTouch since it swapped to that name of P1 Touch. Ive have one installed on my P1P for awhile now and just installed one on my P1S. No issues with the printer. I had one connectivity issue installing the firmware with my computer on the 2nd one [doing everything I did exactly like the first one] yet the computer wouldnt find the COM port so I just used a different computer instead of messing around. Since installing XTouch I havent even touch my original screens. Sometimes I keep my printers on for days and never had disconnect issue. Only thing Iāve noticed is sometimes when I switch to move the X/Y gantry to the Z it sometimes wont swap it. Still works just on the wrong arrows, but thats usually when Iām going to fast on the screen or something. Iāve even connected the optional chamber temperature sensor to both with no issues. I have one that powers on with the unit via the USB port on the printer and one I power externally. This has greatly improved interfacing with the printer which was my initial concern with the original screen.
I recently noticed the other day (12.18.23) there was an OTA update pushed to the XTouch when I turned it on. Nothing seems to have changed, but thought Iād mention that if no one else noticed

Looks like a third party company is about to release a touchscreen with more capability than xtouch, plus the ability to control multiple printers. Skip to 6:13 in video. https://youtu.be/p5dx5MqJTAA?si=nyQFnLZJrGwPHVNY
@dupras.steve this looks great! may I ask how you routed the USB cable on the P1S? The riser / lid seem to be in the way, i see there is a hole over on the right side but wasnāt sure i wanted to run such a long cable

The cable is routed through the same hole as the power cable for the original screen. I had to slightly shave down the rubber surrounding the USB plug-in to fit it through, but it was not a problem.
Did you check you signal strength for your network if it is dropping the signal and then losing the connection?? Something to check anyways
@dupras.steve brilliant thank you!
I feel like using the mobile phone app is much more convenient and user friendly than any touchscreenā¦ I barely use my P1S screen for anything other than checking how much print time is left 
I use LAN only mode, like many other users for a reason. So no option to use the handy app, bc handy app only with cloud.
Iām stuck in a reboot loop at the moment with mine. Installation was good, an error keeps coming up and it restarts.
Is your machines firmware up to date??
It may be. I tried X-touch and found little use for it. Then I bought the Panda Touch. Iām surprised how often changing material color and loading/unloading I do from it. Now Iāll be able to monitor power consumption as well as turn off/ok printer from it without having to reach around the back. (Must have Panda Power too)
Yes. Both are up to date, Ive read about the error, it is on bambu account somewhere. From the logs on Xtouch, it happens when it tries to communicate with bambu.
Bambu killed the MQTT Xtouch and others used to communicate with the printers a little while back. Has Xtouch firmware been changed to find another way?
BTT uses the cloud to regain the features lost in that change. I donāt follow Xtouch anymore to know if they did as well.
