Re: Unreliable WIFI on zBitx?

Hey Jody,

When you were running RealVNC in your configuration, did you also have an external display hooked up?? Or were you just connected to the device with RealVNC?

When I was running yesterday I had both RealVNC AND a monitor, keyboard and mouse.?? I disconnected everything last night to sit on the porch and run some FT8 and JUST connected to it with RealVNC this morning to export the FT8 logs.?? I immediately noticed that the resolution on the display is different.? With an HDMI monitor hooked up, the desktop was the size of the monitor.? This morning, the desktop appears to be just about the size of the built in display.?? I'm having some display issues showing all of sBitx, but that's a different issue.

What's notable is that in this configuration, RealVNC seems much more stable than it was with the monitor connected and thus much higher display resolution.

Thanks!

I have run SSH and RealVNC for hours at a time while trying out things.? But I am either 5 feet away from my WiFi Router or about 30 feet away.? ?I have not experienced any unexpected disconnects with either connection.? But I have only been using CW into a dummy load.? So, maybe my results are not typical.
