And it may have nothing to do with your iPad and most likely not.

Not saying it isn't a bug in the 218 or the app either.

But with a little "messing around" it can help narrow things down and possibly be a temporary work around.

It's pretty trivial to check, but if it's beyond your tinkering, so be it. I've seen it numerous times. Often on cutting edge equipment that hasn't been teethed in the real world.

Oh, are there network status lights on the the back of 218? on the RJ connection?
If that light is going out or changing speed could give a hint.
