Today, I went to a project and when I got on site, I started up the LS base, set to use TCP with verizon Jet Pack. The Jet Pack required an update when I turned it on, I updated the jetpack, but when I went to connect the LS to the WIFI from the Jetpack, it would connect and then quickly disconnected. So fired up the Rover LS, and its jetpack, required the same update, so updated it, and it exhibited the same behavior. My cell phone would connect, and then quickly disconnect, so the behavior was not limited to the LS. The LS would connect, and showed no internet connection, and then dropped the connection, and started the whole process over. So after about 30 min of rebooting both the LS and Jetpacks, I decided to switch to the spread spectrum radio. Fired up the radio, setup the base, and fired up the rover. The rover showed great radio signal, but was not recieving corrections from the base. Again started everything over and resetup everything, nothing. So after an hour of trying to get some sort of connection, I gave up.
Packed everything up, drove back to the Office, 1 1/2 hour drive. Set both units up outside at the office, had both units logon to the WIFI at the office, no problems. Got into remote support, had Adam login and check things out, fired up the jetpacks, both connected and held steady. So thought try the Spread Spectrum Radio, and it was steady. So not sure what was going on at my site, but it was like something was jamming the Jetpacks and the Radio. Plan to go back and try again.
Anyone ever experienced a connection problem like that?
