Thanks for the ideas.

- Because this is at a remote location, I have to have an ethernet cable to the Beelink and currently have it located on the pier. ?So I would either have to string an ethernet cable up to the computer (if I move the Beelink to the OTA) or bring a USB cable down. ?Kind of defeats the purpose of the Mach2's through the mount cables. ?(I do wish AP would add an ethernet cable to their through the mount cables. ?I would give us a lot more options.)
- I'm trying USB2 now but am still having issues. ?With my long subs, long download times are not critical to me.
- My setup is at a bortle 1 site so I'm routinely taking 20 min subs or even longer. ?If there is an interrupt, having to wait 5-15 min before initiating another sub is suboptimal even if I can program it in Voyager. ?Another possible solution is to see if Voyager can recognize a fault and then program it to cycle the power - not elegant either. ? By the way, I had similar problems using NINA.

If Atik is unable to solve these problems, I think my best course of action is to sell the QSI760. ?Short-term, I'm probably going to swap it out with my more reliable ASI6200 (pains me to say this). ?That's the price I pay when I decide to live on the edge and go with an unproven product. ?Every product has limitations. ?In my current use case, I'm finding the QSI760 is not a viable alternative.?

edit - last night I did a partial night run. ?Out of 19 subs, 8 were blank. . .?
