I have a new iPad Pro 11inch with ForeFlight installed. In the plane it shows that it is connected to Dynon by Wi-fi but never registers anything (plane, location, speed etc.) on the screen. I've tried turning off, and then on, the Wi-fi to no avail. My iPhone on the same flight carries all the features of the flight in ForeFlight, without doing anything except turning on the app. I've tried two Dynon Wi-fi dongles with no effect.
Can anyone help me get the iPad connected to the Classic?

On the iPad, under 'Settings' - 'General' - 'ForeFlight', check to make sure 'Local Network' is enabled so ForeFlight has access to it. See pic:

I have filed a bug to Foreflight, on almost same issue.

Procedure that is working is; Kill Foreflight app on IOS. Make sure you are connected to Dynon Wifi, start Foreflight again, everything works!

To test, you can see if you can transfer "flight plan" to and from Forefligt to Dynon (and vice versa), if not, you are not properly connected.

I have kindly asked Foreflight, to repeat testing (once every 15 sec.) if an Dynon is available on Wifi (this they don't do today) - this is a bug in my opinion.

Order of startup is important
