I use a Samsung tablet to connect to the SkyTrak device. For 3 months I was regularly experiencing the "yellow light" connection issue. On average, the yellow light issue plagued my golfing experience, happening at least every 10 to 15 shots.
After making the two adjustments below on my tablet; I have hit close to 2000 shots using the device and haven't seen the yellow light one time. Problem seems 100% resolved.
This solution is rooted in turning off settings that many devices have turned on by default by the manufacturer. According to SkyTrak documentation, the yellow light indicates the device has located a WiFi network but is unable to connect. Adjusting the settings below seems applicable for the yellow light issue.\
Although my settings are relative to a Samsung tablet, the underlying networking/WiFi principles and settings could be applicable to other device types and brands. Most devices have these same kind of settings.
Hope this helps some of you.
1. Turn off Network Notification
--- You can find this somewhere in "Settings / WiFi Advanced settings". You have to turn off WiFi temporarily to access/edit this setting, then you turn WiFi back on
--- We setup our SkyTrak device to use a specific WiFi network (ours); we do not need or want our device to constantly notify us of other networks
--- You can always turn this setting back on if you need it
2. Turn off Nearby Device Scanning
--- I found this in "Settings / More Connection Settings"
--- We don't need or want our device constantly scanning for other devices
--- You can always turn this setting back on if you need it
