Connection Drops

Open chrisrock1984 opened this issue 4 years ago • 3 comments

Hi and thanks for this great addon!

I have a good wifi connection, but from time to time the integration does not get data from the wifi module. what did I miss or did I have done wrong?

thanks for any help!

So the device itself is designed so that when you connect to it, it spews data for about 1 hour, then shuts the connection down. I get around this "feature" by just reconnecting whenever it drops. If this is the behavior you are seeing, then, yes, it's part of the hardware, not the integration....

Thank you great integration. I think I am seeing the unit just not stop sending data, it completely drops off the wifi.

I know mine does this sometimes too. The wifi on it is not the best, and it just disconnects and reconnects sometimes... It's a really flaky unit. :(
