Does Not Pick Up ADSB input Modified By John Miller on 2/21/2021 8:58:18 AM

I have been told that this was noted by a forum member before, but no solution was found.

PROBLEM: Using Android tablet I could not pick up targets and I could see I was not receivig ADSB signals.

I recycled the Uavionix several times, but this had no affect.

The only way I got it to work was to close IFLY and then start it up again.

I was told by my wingman, also an IFLY user, that this has been an ongoing issue with not solution to date.

Time for a fix...

Still no response on this after many months.

Must mean few people are experiencing this or IFLY has bigger fish to fry.

Have you checked to be sure your tablet's wifi is connecting to the uAvionix Ping router?

I suspect it isn't connecting, but 99% of the time that is not an issue.

Before I had to actually go out of IFLY and back in, I went to the IFLY ADSB status and could see no connection. I told it to reconnect with no results.

The only way to get it to connect was to restart IFLY.
