ColinE Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Hi all, I've just downloaded IOS 8.2 onto my i-pad and I'm experiening problems in making the connection to the laptop. When I do succeed the 'unreliable connection' box shows and it keeps on losing connectivity, it was working fine before the update and I have checked the static IP addresses are all ok. Has anyone else experienced this problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AncientMariner Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 I'm running IOS 8.2 without that problem. I have recently deleted the app and re-downloaded: worth a try. if you double click on any of the green rectangles bottom right of the RM display you will open the log - that might be instructive. In any case you do need a very good internet connection to maintain connectivity. I have placed a repeater close to the PC running RM - this seems to have improved things.

The router is a dedicated one beside my laptop and layout. Today was my first opportunity to attempt to solve the problem so I started everything up ready to investigate and surprise, surprise it all worked perfectly. I've switched the whole system off and restarted it a couple of times and all is well. I have no explanation !!!!! Thanks once again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All was well, rock solid connectivity, then for some unknown reason it all fell apart. The iPad lost connectivity, and would not even try to reconnect. In the end I went through the whole routine as you did, and it's good again. I'm not clear what fixed it, but I'm inclined to think that it was stopping and restarting RM. Could have been stopping and restarting any of the elements though. Grrr ... as they say in Japan: "Yesterday it worked . . . Today it is not working . . . Windows is like that."

Ah - yes that seems likely - in that case, if the iPad has 8.2, then a help request to HRMS would seem to be the best option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
