iPad Pro won't stay connected to my Network

Hi All,

As the subject says, iPad Pro won't stay connected to my Network.

Element 2,  EOS v3.1   My network is working.  I get connection from the NetGear wireless router to the iPad.

It works fine for a few moments.   

Then it stops working.  All of the iRFR controls are frozen.

 Eventually, the Connection screen command line turns red, and says Remote Disconnected.

This is in line of sight of the wireless router.

This happened with EOS v2.9

This happened with the previous wireless router. 

After several moments, It allows me to reconnect to the network.

And the process repeats.....  it's useable, having to reconnect to the network every few keystrokes.

Any ideas?

Thanksomuch

    Well, I have had the same problem with two different tablets and smart phone with iRFR apps. We also have a 5-year-old ETCPad which had lots of problems. ETC kindly sent us a complete firmware and software update. IE now the latest greatest.

    The original ETCPad was said not to connect automatically if there was no internet connection and the updates would cure this. We do not allow our Netgear router to access the internet for obvious reasons.

    Now I only have to pull the ETCPad (or my tablet) out and work for a few minutes when I get that disconnected message! Most of the time now though, I'm able to go to settings, wait a bit and then select our Element 2 console again and things work.

    It seems as though either the OSC stream is hiccupping OR our router is misbehaving. The latter being tough to swallow as we have direct line of site from about 50' away!   In fact I was just about to go and buy a new router when I saw that you said this happened with a previous router. So now I am lost too!
