Skytrak drops connection after 4-5 min consistently

[Osubucks999]

Ok. So just got my Skytrak last week and am hooking it up today.
Followed the steps.....worked perfect. At least for a few min.

Now frustration sets in.

In network mode. Open app, turn on the unit.....connects up. Works great.
After about 4.5 minutes or so, the lights go red/yellow/green and I lose connection.
If I restart the unit by pressing the button, it reconnects.
Again after about 4.5 min it drops again.

wifi signal is strong.
network speed is excellent.
Using a brand new Netgear router. All other wifi devices work fine.

was on the phone 5 times with Skytrak. Lots of restarts and rebooting. Obviously, that’s not working.

Help anyone??

I really don’t want to send this thing back 😕

PLEASE PASS THIS AROUND TO PEOPLE HAVING CONNECTIVITY ISSUES. This will solve everyone's issues if they are able to add a usb wifi to their system. Anyone who has done this winds up having 0 issues. I'm an IT person and I originally setup my system this way because direct mode isn't an option, usb sucks and network mode is flakey. IF you do this - please pass around and help others!
