I am using PP version 2.3.6, and it has probing issues. I am wondering if anyone using the newer updates has found a stable version that you would recommend?
I use newest release but right now I only use probe on 24r router to find precision points like fixture edge or center of a long board. I see no issues. What problems are you seeing?
Side note it is kind of entertaining to watch the probe logic find the center of a 1x3ft board.

I probe holes mainly and it is interesting to see it work and it is fast as well, I am still on the first stylus from 2 1/2 years ago and I use it several times a day.
The probing issues I have are when there is a bad/glitchy connection.
This could be in the probe contacts, in the cable, or even in the limit switches.
this could well be, I changed to a microphone cable because of the better connector quality (in my opinion), still had the problem where it says the probing function had an error and it stops in mid probe function, the cable issue seems to have went away when I start a program now it doesnt error out.Quote:

I put a microphone coiled cord with mic connectors on my new probe, so far it hasnt glitched or stopped mid program, hopefully that problem is fixed.Quote:
