I don't know what happen but the network was great with reduced resets until this week. Nothing has changed with the LA and firmware is still 1849. Now I am have multiple disconnect from the network and for the first time one that required the Classic to be powered off and back on to connect. So looks like the network issues still exist with the LA.
I will try to put blackbox box in one minute cron mode, and see what that does. Be interesting to see.
this may or may not be am issue with Network, but...
Last weekend I got the LA to work on one Classic, poked around and shut it down.
this weekend I plugged into same Classic, nada. Played around with trying to get it recognized, saw that bytes Received was in the millions but Sent was in the digits. Played with Off/On a bit, unplugging etc, and saw a a blip of the LA saying 'Communicating" before it said 'no connection'...?
I'm curious to now if this is actually and AIR issue . Did anyone notice if AIR had updated before the network badness started happening again. The wide variety of luck with connecting to the Classic may be more to do with the Host-side rather than the Classic itself. Just a guess -- I'm still kicking myself that I went with AIR instead of something a little more predictable.
I've recently done the AIR update, and the new Local App, and I think when I reverted to the older local app, the connection reliability improved. The new app is just not able to stay connected.
That's very interesting.
The latest Local App only displays one extra register on the screen. Nothing changed in networking, no additional controls were added, no crazy features -- jut put one extra value on the screen for debugging. It makes me wonder if the AIR networking has been the problem all along as far as Local App disconnects....
Yes I have not let air update on purpose and mine seems fine. I will let Air update now and see if all goes south?
My last AIR update was 5/11/14 I monitored the system over Memorial Day for almost 2 weeks and did not have the network issues then. This whole network disconnect is strange. As far as I know the Classic had not restarted for long time. I'm not doing the reset at midnight. Almost back to the firmware update since it has been restarted. So I rebooted after having two days of constant network disconnects. Guess what, back to being fairly stable. Only disconnects are with the OFFLINE DATA exports. So what happen to the Classic that that a reboot straightened it out. As I mention it had one of the disconnects that other have had that would not connect until I rebooted. That is the first one of those I have had. ???
