Kick V5 - direct connect - power / rpm dropout

Bugs and Support
1

Hi,

I’m using a Kick V5 (Firmware 4.30) - with direct connect. Lately I have issue with the connection between the trainer and Zwift dropping out.

While the trainer is still sending Data perfectly on ANT+ (I use direct connect to connect with Zwift and ANT+/BLE to connect to my Garmin for recording)

deleting the preference files did not solve this issue.

Switching in a race to ANT+/BL works, but until a couple of weeks direct connect worked flawlessly. Nothing was changed in the LAN network or on the PC.

Any thoughts?

Hi @Becker_Tobias_KC

Flaky Wahoo Direct Connect issues are usually solved by rebooting the router. Have you tried that?

While you’re at it, reboot the Zwifting device (i.e. computer/ tablet) and also the trainer so all those are reassigned dynamic IP addresses.

Hi @shooj

thank you for pointing this oiut. This helped for 1-2 rides (or it was just luck)

But the issue reappeared.

Best regards
