Anton Lidbom replied to Anton Lidbom's discussion MAVproxy connection issue with Pixhawk/PX4 - no link
"I'm using UDP and run the connection through a VPN tunnel so that the IP never changes. Although, that shouldn't matter since the mavproxy is directly connected to the autopilot via the telemetry port.  Restarting mavproxy automatically could…"
