Establishing a connection when wi-fi is down.

Bill Spencer

Another wi-fi device on the market had a problem when there was a power failure and the device continued to poll the router trying to connect and eventually depleted its battery, preventing it from connecting after power was restored. Have the twine designers thought about this?

I suggest that in the case of longer than expected delays in establishing a connection, twine should switch to making less frequent attempts to connect, perhaps in a progressive fashion. This mode would be suspended when a connection was reestablished, or by flipping twine over.

I believe that is there, in that if the initial connect fails, it will try again in 2 hours. Maybe that time needs to be user-settable, but it does prevent the battery drain.
