Sprinkler system drops of my home network

[deleted]

Hi All,
I have configured my TIAO sprinkler system to connect to my home network. It connects without an issue but after a while it disconnects itself. After rebooting it re-establishes a connection without an issue.
I think it may be due to the Raspberry PI going into some kind of sleep mode?
Could anyone assist with this issue?
Regards,

The connection issue is most like to be your wifi issue

Hi,
Just an update on the issue. It ended up being the my USB WIFI dongle causing the problem. I was using a fancy TPLINK model that also had the function to be used as a hotspot. I replaced this with a "normal" WIFI dongle, and it now stays connected

Cheers.
