Default iPad Avid Control problem connecting.

I cannot get the Avid Control app on my iPad to connect via EuCon. I have:

-- Made sure I have the latest versions of all software.
-- Re-started the computer and iPad a number of times.
-- Confirmed that both my Mac and iPad are connected to the same 5GHz wi-fi network.

When I open Avid Control on the iPad, it shows up in the All Surfaces column. As soon as I add it to My Surfaces, it disappears from both. I click Show Info and get the "having connection issues" message. I do what the prompt suggests...same result.

Any suggestions are welcome!

Well, for those who may be having the same problem...I've solved mine.

Our Wi-Fi router is an Airport Extreme. A look inside the network settings revealed that incoming iPv6 connections were blocked. When I unblocked them, voila.

Cheers, everyone.

Check that. I had Control working yesterday afternoon. This morning...same problem.

Now I'm stuck. Any suggestions anyone?

Thanks!

That router is known to cause issues.

That's what I was afraid of. Looks like it's time for a new wi-fi router. Thanks!

How do you go about checking that it was blocked and go about unblocking it?

IP settings are in the Airport Utility app. But as I mentioned, after changing the setting it only worked briefly. I ended up buying and installing one of the Avid recommended WiFi routers and it all works now.
