Connection to server timed out

May 08, 2013 chillum baba link
I keep getting this on my iPad Mini... does not happen on my iMac... any suggestions? Have not changed the MTU mode from auto to compatibility yet... though I should have tried before posting. However, it'd still be a bug of course. Again iMac on same wifi network has no problems. Or... maybe I should recheck that too... It is possible that it is somekind of recent issue with my connection. Definitely wasn't happening before on my iMac.

I thought it was just my phone being glitchy, but i've been getting a lot of timeouts lately too.

chillum, are you sleeping your iPad or otherwise backgrounding VO? That would cause the time out.

I am not... though I am aware that causes timeouts... also it seems to have improved. Will try using the iPad mini some more today to see if it in fact has, and post an update.

So yeah... maybe it was just my connection or bad wifi antenna in these iPads as someone suggested in game.

This might seem unrelated, but does your iPad have a 3g data connection? On my Android phone, turning off network time on the clock seems to have stopped the timeouts I was having.

The iPad I have is wifi-only and doesn't have this problem.

Hmmm... Interesting... Yeah, this is an LTE (4g) iPad and I leave the cellular conn going even while using wifi... Maybe should try with the cell antenna off... Not as much of an issue at is was before btw...
