It can talk to the printer directly if you use "LAN mode". This also work with 3rd party slicers like OrcaSlicer.

So if my printer isn’t working because their network is down, it’ll swap to lan mode for a seamless experience? No? Huh.

This is false. After the authorization-related firmware changes last year LAN mode doesn't allow 3rd party slicers to connect.

LAN mode is also abandonware with numerous issues and missing features that they've had no interest in fixing. Orca slicer has had to rely on hacky workarounds in Bambu's buggy networking plugin just to be able to connect to printers in a different subnet. https://github.com/bambulab/BambuStudio/issues/4512
