The problem we are having is, every 90 seconds or so the aps doesen’t send or recive anything (screenshot of this and config can be found at the bottom of post).
This is a problem because we are sending to an ip tv decoder wich is very sensetiv to drops, and will therfore get artifacts on the tv every time this happens.
