(Get the code!)
A little more detail about "better than before." It is staying connected
for longer periods of time now. Before, I could stay on for 5 hours, or 5
minutes. Now it will generally be a longer duration before I get
disconnected.
Also, it seems when I run on battery, I don't get disconnected! That could
just be coincidental though. I usually am plugged into the wall, but I ran
last night for around 3 hours on battery and did not have a single
disconnect.
Cheers,
Leaman
