Hey, thanks for taking an interest.
I mentioned the router because I had a remote switch from my bed that I could use to electronically disconnect my router from the outlet, then reboot in the morning. This was to minimize WiFi interference while sleeping. I stopped doing that to allow for my overnight playing.
A rebooting router will generate a new public IP address. As long as it's running, this IP address shouldn't change, as that would interrupt all of my desktop apps as well (would it not?).
I should know this, as I'm studying for CompTIA's Network+. From having been through the entire curriculum, the session data should be enough to allow the loops to come through without interruption, which is where the Android phone settings came into play (relating to my response message to Shannon).
I've modified a couple of settings and will attempt again tonight.
I'll answer here, so that I don't clutter Shannons thread.
Yes, I also think that the session data should be enough to resume the data stream after a short disconnect. Since I do get a forced reconnect every from my isp every day I thought maybe it is similar for you. But maybe isps operate a little differently in my part of the world. Hope that you get the problem solved.
Cheers
